Melissa Erin Jackson

When Amber Blackwood's best friend Melanie is found dead, clutching a vial of headache tonic from Amber's curiosity shop, Amber becomes the prime suspect. Determined to find justice for her friend and to clear her own name, she must use her witchy gifts to track down Melanie's real killer.

Pawsitively Poisonous

The dead can speak. They need her to listen. Ever since Riley Thomas, reluctant medium extraordinaire, accidentally released a malevolent spirit from a Ouija board when she was thirteen, she’s taken a hard pass on scary movies, haunted houses, and cemeteries. Twelve years later, when her best friend pressures her into spending a paranormal investigation weekend at the infamous Jordanville Ranch—former home of deceased serial killer Orin Jacobs—Riley’s still not ready to accept the fact that she can communicate with ghosts. Shortly after their arrival at the ranch, the spirit of a little boy contacts Riley; a child who went missing—and was never found—in 1973. In order to put the young boy’s spirit to rest, she has to come to grips with her ability. But how can she solve a mystery that happened a decade before she was born? Especially when someone who knows Orin’s secrets wants to keep the truth buried—no matter the cost.

The Forgotten Child

In this fast-paced paranormal mystery, you'll find a reluctant psychic medium, cold cases, ghosts, and a dash of romance. He doesn’t want her to focus on the past. It’s been six months since Riley Thomas, reluctant medium extraordinaire, has had a ghost haunting her apartment, and she prefers it that way. Life is less complicated when the dead aren’t trying to get her attention. Her best friend is getting married and wants to DIY her way through wedding prep—Riley’s got no time for ghosts. One of Jade’s wedding must-haves is vintage film cameras her guests can use to help document the big day. The months-long hunt for relics leads to a thrift shop jackpot, and Riley adds the cameras to the growing pile of wedding supplies in her apartment. That night, Riley gets a midnight wake-up call from a ghostly Black woman in a yellow dress. Even after the haunted cameras are removed from the apartment, the ghost woman keeps popping up, both in Riley’s dreams and in the corner of her eye. Tracking down the previous owner of the cameras proves difficult, and as Riley digs deeper, she uncovers a link between the cameras and two murdered women—one white, one Black, yet neither one is Riley’s mystery woman. Though the identity of the ghost proves to be as elusive as her predator, Riley is determined to uncover the truth of what happened to these women. But now someone knows she’s looking … and he’s hell-bent on making sure he finds her first. ----- KEYWORDS: paranormal mystery, ghosts, ghost fiction, ghost thriller, psychics, psychic mystery, psychic fiction, psychic thriller, supernatural suspense, supernatural thriller, serial killers, serial killer fiction, amateur detective, paranormal mystery series, millennial protagonist

A paranormal mystery starring a reluctant psychic medium

Shuttered Secrets

Just when she thinks her day can’t get any weirder, she finds a baby dragon … Deandra Hendricks works her fingers to the bone at two jobs to keep her Los Angeles apartment. With a rapidly dwindling savings account, the prospects for her future are bleak. So when her cousin invites her to visit Axia—the hidden, magical hub their grandparents retired to—she agrees. Deandra doesn’t possess a stitch of magic herself, but a long weekend vacation in a strange new town might be just what she needs. Her first day in Axia is so bizarre, though, she wonders if her bleak life in Los Angeles hasn’t been so bad after all. And, just when she thinks her day can’t get any stranger, she finds a baby dragon trapped in a dumpster. At a loss, she takes a trip to the vet, hoping they can help find the little guy’s owner. The dragon, it turns out, only appears as a winged lizard to her, while everyone else sees a dire wolf puppy. She and the vet discover that as long as the dragon wears his bespelled collar, his true identity is hidden. Someone went to great lengths to keep this supposed-to-be-extinct animal a secret. Then the “dog” is accused of arson and is seized by authorities. Determined to help him, Deandra searches for the real arsonist. She catches wind of a thriving black market that’s populated by those who would stop at nothing to claim an animal this rare. She must work quickly to clear her dragon’s name, because if he falls into the wrong hands, she could lose him forever.

A Mythical Case of Arson

Pawsitively Suspicious

Though the fire that killed Amber Blackwood's parents had been ruled an accident, Amber has always suspected someone from the fabled, cursed Penhallow clan was responsible. Her family thinks she's paranoid-so it's a shock when her aunt shows up, claiming that a Penhallow has resurfaced, and that he's heading for Edgehill ... and Amber.

Pawsitively Cursed

Appearances can be deceiving. Amber Blackwood, Edgehill's secret resident witch, recently found her parents' grimoires and the powerful time spells within. The malevolent Penhallow clan has been ruthlessly seeking the grimoires so they can travel back in time to undo their clan's cursed magic. Because the Penhallows will stop at nothing, Amber must find an impregnable hiding place for the grimoires, though she has no clue where to start looking. When her cousin Edgar suggests the game of Magic Cache, a magic-infused version of geocaching played by witches all over the world, Amber agrees to learn how to play. After all, a weird plan is better than no plan. When the magical search leads her to the neighboring town of Marbleglen-"the safest town in Oregon"-Amber assumes her only problem will be dealing with its snooty residents. Instead, she gets caught up in a murder investigation where one man is dead and a second one framed for the crime. To complicate matters, the framed man's condescending daughter, Bianca, wants Amber's help-and Bianca just happens to chair Marbleglen's Floral Frenzy Flower Festival Committee, the rival to Edgehill's own Here and Meow Festival Committee. The two women are thrown into an uneasy alliance. Joined by her new frenemy, her growing inner circle, and Edgehill's Chief Brown, Amber works to unravel the mystery to ensure the right culprit ends up behind bars and Marbleglen's safety is restored. But Amber knows that even if Marbleglen's mystery is resolved, a bigger danger lurks in the shadows. If the Penhallows claim the grimoires of Amber's late parents, they'll use the books' time-reversal spells to try to stop the curse from ever having poisoned their clan-and, in the process, possibly rewriting history.

Pawsitively Swindled

Enjoy the fifth and final book in this completed series of five lighthearted, fast-paced, twisty paranormal cozy mysteries today Enemies wear many faces.

Even though Amber’s witchy past keeps interfering, she knows the show must go on. Edgehill’s livelihood depends on the festival’s success. When two incidents involving her malfunctioning products cause her to shutter the doors of her curiosity shop, The Quirky Whisker, only days before the busiest season of the year, Amber thinks things can’t get any worse. An investigation into the incidents reveals sabotage is to blame—sabotage that only could have been carried out by a fellow witch. Things just officially got worse. With Edgehill overrun by tourists, any unfamiliar face could be a member of the nefarious Penhallow witch family. Though her parents’ grimoires are hidden in a remote location overlaid with protective spells, Amber fears that won’t be enough to deter the desperate and cursed clan from trying to get their hands on a legendary time-travel spell. As the opening ceremony of the Here and Meow approaches, Amber contends with a nosy lawyer, mysterious government officials, and a charismatic superstar. Through it all, Amber senses the Penhallows have something planned—something big. With her new circle of close confidants by her side, Amber must find a way to thwart the Penhallow family’s scheme before it’s too late. If she can’t, the Here and Meow will be ruined … and Edgehill could be wiped off the map. ----- KEYWORDS: paranormal cozy mystery series, paranormal cozy mystery, paranormal cozy books, paranormal cozy authors, cozy paranormal authors, witch cozy mystery, witch cozy mystery series, cozy witch books, cozy witch, best witch cozy mysteries, cozy mysteries, cozy mystery series, cozy mystery books, cat fiction books, cat fiction, cat fiction series, witch series books, cozy mystery, paranormal cozy mystery, paranormal mystery, cozy witch mystery, cat mystery, cozy murder mysteries, cozy murder mystery, witches, small town mystery, small town murder mystery, quirky town

For the past fourteen years, Edgehill’s resident secret witch, Amber Blackwood, has been haunted by her parents’ deaths. The whole town knows about the tragedy, but the details remain a mystery even to Amber. From her tiny studio apartment above her shop, The Quirky Whisker, Amber can see her partially rebuilt old house out on the edge of town. Although she now has a good life—delighting children with her magically infused toys, concocting healing tinctures for Edgehill’s residents, doting on her cats, Tom and Alley, and sitting on the committee for the town’s annual Here and Meow Festival—she feels stuck in the past. Amber suspects the fire that killed her parents was set deliberately by a witch from the cursed Penhallow clan, from whom no one has heard even a whisper since the night her parents died.

So Amber is shocked when Aunt Gretchen shows up unexpectedly, claiming the Penhallows have resurfaced and that one of them is heading for Edgehill with Amber in his sights. Aunt Gretchen knows more about the fabled clan than she’s letting on. Amber is determined to find out what her aunt is hiding, and what the Penhallow seeks, before the same treacherous force that took Amber’s parents’ lives claims her own. ------ KEYWORDS: paranormal cozy mystery series, paranormal cozy mystery, paranormal cozy books, paranormal cozy authors, cozy paranormal authors, witch cozy mystery, witch cozy mystery series, cozy witch books, cozy witch, best witch cozy mysteries, cozy mysteries, cozy mystery series, cozy mystery books, cat fiction books, cat fiction, cat fiction series, witch series books, cozy mystery, paranormal cozy mystery, paranormal mystery, cozy witch mystery, cat mystery, cozy murder mysteries, cozy murder mystery, witches, small town mystery, small town murder mystery, quirky town

Magic & Mystery

A sentient sword. An artifact collector. A whole world of trouble. As the daughter of bounty hunters, I know more about the criminal underbelly than the average citizen of Luma, California. But when my dad’s work got him killed, and my mom skipped town, I swore off the profession for myself. I should have chosen a safer, completely unrelated career—like accounting. Instead, I fell into the lucrative gig of freelance charm collecting. I have a knack for finding rare artifacts, namely illegal magic-laced weapons, and I use that skill to sneak into criminals’ homes after the police have carted them off for their latest infractions. Once I’ve helped myself to the contraband, I sell it to the highest bidder. While looting my latest victim, a gorgeous sword catches my eye. My gut tells me it has dragon magic coursing through its blade—and I have the perfect buyer in mind for it. I regret my decision to steal the sword within minutes: the weapon is alive. It’s lightning-quick and has an anger management problem, but it’s taken a shine to me. When the sword takes off one day, I’m relieved to have it out of my life. I’m less relieved when the police show up at my door, accusing me of murder. While I’m in the middle of explaining that I didn’t commit the crime, the diabolical sword floats into my apartment, covered in blood. Now we’re on the run, with bounty hunters and government-trained feline shifters hot on our trail. Somehow, I have to prove my innocence while the sentient murder weapon sticks by my side. I really should have been an accountant.

A Cozy Witch Mystery

A Magic Cache lesson resuts in Amber's involvement in another case. An innocent man is being framed, and if Amber doesn't find the killer, someone will get away with murder.

Every town has its secrets, but no one has a secret like hers. Amber Blackwood, lifelong resident of Edgehill, Oregon, has earned a reputation for being a semi-reclusive odd duck. Her store, The Quirky Whisker, is full of curiosities, from extremely potent sleepy teas and ever-burning candles to kids’ toys that seem to run endlessly without the aid of batteries. The people of Edgehill think of the Quirky Whisker as an integral part of their feline-obsessed town, but most give Amber herself a wide berth. Amber prefers it that way; it keeps her secret safe. But that secret is thrown into jeopardy when Amber’s friend Melanie is found dead, a vial of headache tonic from Amber’s store clutched in her hand. Edgehill’s newest police chief has had it out for Amber since he arrived three years before. He can’t possibly know she’s a witch, but his suspicions about her odd store and even odder behavior have shot her to the top of his suspect list. When the Edgehill rumor mill finds out Melanie was poisoned, it’s not only the police chief who looks at Amber differently. Determined to both find justice for her friend and to clear her own name, Amber must use her unique gifts to help track down Melanie’s real killer. A quest that threatens much more than her secret … This box set includes the first three books in the Witch of Edgehill paranormal cozy mystery series: PAWSITIVELY POISONOUS PAWSITIVELY CURSED PAWSITIVELY SECRETIVE
