A fall from grace costs Lexi a position at a top New York financial institution. She ends up in a job at a small private bank in Beverly Hills. But that's okay, she still gets to work in her favorite field — catching white collar crooks. At least that's what she tells herself.

But when Karista, the daughter of one of the bank's principal investors, runs into danger while traveling in Indonesia, Lexi's job comes to depend on her ability to save her. Even worse, Lexi will have to baby sit Steve, her boss' well-meaning but spoiled son, while going undercover to reach the heiress.

Lexi's cushy tropical assignment soon spirals into chaos as she has to outrun fashion-forward Batak natives, outwit an arrogant FBI agent, help Steve find his stolen Air Yeezy sneakers, and figure out why her ardent former lover and debonair gentleman thief, Andre, is staying at the same resort.

Lexi will have to be very good or very lucky to survive it all.

The Hummingbird Wizard by Meredith Blevins, Amazon Kindle format

Once you marry into a gypsy clan, just try to get out! Annie Szabo loved her husband, but after his death, she was only too happy to leave his outrageous clan behind, especially her pushy mother-in-law, Madame Mina. But Mina wasn't just any pushy relative. As the heart of the close-knit Szabo family, she was also powerful, stubborn, and devoutly to be avoided.

Well, too bad for Annie! When her oldest friend, Jerry, turns up dead, she's plunged back into the family she tried to leave behind. She knows Jerry was murdered, but how is she supposed to prove it?

Easy, if you've got a gypsy family. Or anyway, easier. So before you know it, Annie's knee-deep once again in ancient curses, petty theft, and, everyone's favorite — love magic. All thanks to Madame Mina's psychic skills and a certain wildly sexy gypsy and his shady P.I. father.

Yesterday Cece Cash came dangerously close to stuffing Derek North into the trunk of her car and dumping his body in the Vegas desert. Then she snapped out of her daydream and realized he wasn't worth the prison time.

As much as Cece hates to admit it, she needs Derek. Her old pal's cash rescued her private investigation agency. Her witchcraft hadn't been enough to save the business. Luckily for her, Derek has the money and she has the skills. Well, at least she thinks she has the skills. She's still counting on the spell casting to help.

Now if she can just pay Derek back, she'll send him packing to Savannah and get him out of her hair for good. Wisecracking and fun-loving Derek has other plans though. He enjoys being a part of the agency. Life is a party and he isn't about to waste a minute of it. Why else would he come to Vegas?

What happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas. Sometimes the shenanigans pop up in the middle of the desert in a burning car. A successful owner of a fitness club is suspected of murder and disappears right after the crime. Cece and Derek are hired to find the woman and uncover the truth about the homicide of a young fitness trainer. The stakes are high in Sin City for Cece and Derek. Will luck be on their side or will they lose it all?

The Holiday Decoration Competition is in full swing at Newcastle's historic Paul Revere Inn. As the rivalry heats up, crossword editor Belle Graham unearths an abandoned treasure: a book of dessert recipes written in the form of crosswords handed down from mother to daughter.

While Belle is busy deciphering the ingredients for delectable dishes like "Holiday Slay Ride," another mystery is unraveling. A valuable Longfellow poem has been stolen from its place of honor on the wall of the inn's front parlor. Called in to investigate, Belle's PI husband, Rosco Polycrates, discovers he has a new partner in crime. Twelve-year-old E. T. Whitman, a bit of a wordsmith himself, has all sorts of theories about the theft. But the case is far from a piece of cake. And the search for the culprit brings the detecting trio closer to a truth that's been buried for decades.
