Award-winning and best-selling author Lucinda Race is a lifelong fan of cozy mysteries and romance novels

She spins tales of small town romance and cozy mystery—writing the kinds of stories she loves to read. Whether she’s weaving a heartwarming romance or a cozy mystery, her fingers practically fly across the keyboard.

Lucinda lives with her little dog— a shih tzu mix rescue—who is always by her side. When she’s not immersed in writing mystery, suspense, or romance, she’s wandering in her garden or curled up with a book, devouring everything she can get her hands on.

I'm also reading Writer Naked- A best sellers secrets to writing romance and navigating the path to success.
I've recently picked up Nora Roberts The Inn Boonsboro Trilogy. Also a little James Patterson and the Woman Murder Club to mix things up.

Why I Write Cozy Mystery and Romance Novels (And Why They Belong Together)

Readers often ask me why I write both cozy mystery novels and romance novels. At book signings, it’s phrased a little differently each time:
Why cozy mystery…and romance? Don’t you want just to choose one genre?

Why Cozy Mystery and Romance Are My Favorite Genres
When I first started writing, romance came first. I attended romance b Read more of this blog post »

Three charming novels in this collection. I listened to the audio version for the Maddie Day book in the middle, but enjoyed the two holiday novels with the cocoa theme too.
Each novel was roughly 3 hours, just right to keep me walking.

Quotes by Lucinda Race  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Tell me what I’m thinking?” I leaned closer, giving him full access to my face. The close proximity would help me see if his mouth was moving.  “I’m not telepathic. I’m your familiar, and yes, that means you’re a witch. Finally, the truth is out.”
Lucinda Race, Books & Bribes

“I’m convinced the killer is Teddy. You can arrest him now.”
Lucinda Race, Books & Bribes

“Lily, If you’re reading this, I’m dead. Which means I need for you to stick your nose into my business and figure out who killed me. The police are incompetent, and I’ve had my eye on you for years. I know you’re the only one who can solve the case. Well, maybe you could ask your boyfriend, Gage Erikson, to help.” Sincerely, Flora Gray”

Sherrilyn Kenyon, Acheron

Louis L'Amour, Matagorda/The First Fast Draw: Two Novels in One Volume

Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Matt reached over and covered Jenifer’s hand with his. “What are you thinking about?”

She looked down at the warm fingers holding hers in a gesture that felt both tender and protective. “Nothing. It’s none of my business.”

“Whatever it is, I’m pretty sure I want it to be your business.”
Suzanne Winslow, Burned
