Be Chill My Beating Heart

A fun holiday story full of twists and turns. Great for the cozy mystery reader who adores found family, quirky characters, and deep friendships.

Veronica (Roni) Swift is one lucky girl if you ask her. She's got an amazingly devoted boyfriend who has planned a holiday season full of fun dates, friends to create traditions with, and the absolute best hot chocolate know to man or woman (seriously, Jade makes the best hot cocoa).

There's only ever one slight hiccup and it's becoming an alarmingly frequent one.

One their way home from a great holiday party hosted by the Lasts of Last Resort and Spa, Roni and friends find a dead body and Roni isn't convinced it's an accident. However, when Doodle (her troublesome little Westie who has a penchant for finding dead—usually murdered— bodies) doesn't react, she decides to let it go as an accident.

That is until almost every single member of her found family comes to her with the assertion that it is murder.

What's a girl to do when your friends are practically begging for you to investigate than to heed their cries?

If you love Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series, then you are going to love this found-family with several dashes of humor. Be Chill My Beating Heart is book 5 in the Veronica Swift Mysteries.
