Taylor Texas Boxset (Books 1-3‪)‬

Small Town Secrets. Homemade Pies. Unshakeable Faith.

Hospice nurse Christie Taylor trades hospital hallways for hay bales and comes home to Texas, thinking she's there to rest and contemplate her future. And she'll finally have time to pursue her love of baking pies. What she doesn't expect is that her nursing skills will be needed when Pop is seriously injured. And her Texas backbone is strong against developers who refuse to stop in their desire to acquire their land. Or that strangers can quickly become family. Set against the warm, wide Texas Hill Country, these cozy mysteries are the kind of stories that remind you: truth always finds its way home, faith is forged in struggle, and love always wins.

Book 1: Death Takes A Break Christie Taylor just wants to go home, decompress, and enjoy spending some time with Pop. What she gets instead is a body on the family land and a developer circling like a buzzard. Now this worn-out nurse has to put her detective hat on before someone else's plans become permanent. First in the Taylor Texas Mystery series.

Book 2: Death Makes A Move She quit her job. She came home. She thought the hard part was over. But when Christie Taylor discovers her family's land is at the center of a dangerous scheme, she realizes small towns keep the biggest secrets. Can Christie outmaneuver a killer before her fresh start becomes a fatal mistake? Book 2 in the Taylor Texas Mystery series.

Book 3: Death Stakes A Claim A dead man's final message. A town full of suspects. And rattlesnakes waiting to strike. Including the two-legged kind. Christie Taylor is knee-deep in trouble again as these persistent land developers and a killer close in on everyone she loves. Good thing she's made some friends. She's going to need them. Book 3 in the Taylor Texas Mystery series.
