OWN THE FIRST TWO BOOKS IN THE SERIES IN ONE BUNDLE!

In The Gossiping Gourmet: (Book 1)
Warren Bradley, renowned as the local gadfly in the picture-perfect community of Sausalito, California, is esteemed by his admirers and despised by his detractors. But for love of his caramel chicken and cherry fudge brownies, everyone has a story to share regarding their fellow citizens-- 
Stories that too often find their way into his weekly gossip-filled newspaper column, "Heard About Town."
 When the great chef and his admirers, the Sausalito Ladies of Liberty, take offense to a newly arrived Manhattan power couple, their insular world of tasty sauces and stinging insults leads to deadly results. 

Everyone has his or her own theory as to who killed Warren. But it takes the combined efforts of Rob Timmons, the local newspaper publisher, and Eddie Austin, his childhood friend and Marin County’s top detective, to unravel this tale of delicious dishes and malicious deception.

In The Wicked Wife: (Book 2)
When billionaire William Adams—Belvedere’s most eligible widower—marries international superstar model Willow Wisp, local society’s leading women are dismayed. After all, she is half his age and, in their view, not interested in anything other than his money!
 Like everyone else, newspaper publisher Rob Timmons, his assistant, Holly Cross, and his childhood friend, Sheriff’s Detective, Eddie Austin, are baffled when Willow suddenly disappears.  Is she dead or simply hiding in some far flung corner of the world with one of her many rumored lovers? Or was she the victim of a cuckolded husband, who learned too late that his trophy bride was in truth, a very wicked wife? 

The truth lies somewhere between the posh hotels of Paris, the dazzling parties of San Francisco, and the lush green hills of Marin.

The Terrifying Teacher (Book 4)The death of Sausalito's retired fifth-grade teacher, elderly Henrietta Hammer, the town abuzz. But because she terrified her students--including Sheriff's Detective Eddie Austin, newspaper publisher Rob Timmons, and his assistant, Holly Cross--the news is greeted with bemused nostalgia. But Hammer, who had been left a very wealthy widow by her enterprising late husband was the target of the town's charitable societies, none of which could afford to await her natural death. It appeared to be the perfect murder--until the secret that Henrieta kept for half a century inconveniently appears.

Before long, "the Battling Bents" are Topic Number One throughout the Bay Area, and for good reason: the disdain between the soon-to-be divorced couple is obvious in their on-air barbs and very public slights.When Wild Bill disappears without a trace, Barbara is naturally a suspect. But as Sheriff's Detective Inspector Eddie Austin digs deeper, he learns that Wild Bill had a long list of men and women who would be happy to see KBUD's morning drive celebrity permanently of the air. This mystery has love, hate, and murder with no commercial breaks.
