The Return of Betty Snickerdoodle
by Pepper Frost
The world's bestselling Christmas romance author is not who she seems!
As a nasty, bumbling crook named Cash is about to find out, Bea Sickles is nothing like you'd expect. The seventy-something author of the heartwarming Treacle Town holiday books may be a little old lady, but she's not meek, not weak, and not even a little sweet!
What's more, Bea's a wily ex-poker pro who loves nothing more than being underestimated. So when Cash decides his shortcut to riches is to steal an unpublished Betty Snickerdoodle manuscript, Bea decides what he needs instead is to be taught a lesson -- and she's just the person to do it.
So the chase begins, with Bea nudged out of her reclusive existence and on the hunt to retrieve her manuscript and outwit Cash. It's a gamble that just might blow up in Bea's face. Luckily, she's got a friend on her side: Angela Garcia, the clever and ambitious marketer who helped make Betty Snickerdoodle a household name.
Cash will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Can Bea and Angela stop him -- and save their publishing enterprise from his sabotage-- before it's too late?
The Return of Betty Snickerdoodle is the first in a new cozy mystery series full of humor, twists, and heart.
