Bewitching Bedlam

Whoever thought the innkeeper game could be so deadly?

Maddy Gallowglass, a fun loving witch who was once the terror of vampires all over Europe, has retired her stake and moved into the present day. But even with the comfort of good wine and her best friend, Sandy, she isn't prepared for life as an innkeeper. First, the old mansion came complete with resident ghost--one Franny Smythe. And second, Maudlin never expects to meet Aegis, a vampire rockstar (or rockstar wannabe) who stirs her passions in a way she thought she was long past. As they work to mesh their lives together, and to open the Bewitching Bedlam to their guests, they find that the little community of Bedlam holds far more mayhem--and murder--than they ever expected. WARNING: HOT VAMPIRE NOOKIE! (Not a cozy series)!

As Maudlin and Aegis prepare to open the Bewitching Bedlam B&B to guests, they immediately find themselves embroiled in a battle for customers. Ralph Greyhoof, the owner of the Heart's Desire Bed & Breakfast, doesn't like to share. The conflict heats up when Maddy finds a local witch dead in the garden. The woman looks a lot like Maudlin and suspicion falls on Ralph. But Maddy knows that, as competitive as Ralph is, he wouldn't resort to murder. Maudlin and Aegis set out to find the killer, even as their own relationship is put to the test. Aegis's old flame has returned, determined to win him back, no matter what it takes.
