In the midst of it all, Missy’s Innkeeper, Maggie, comes down with the flu and is knocked out of commission.

Patti Benning - Gourmet Holiday Murder
Papa Pacelli’s Pizzeria, Book 6
Eleanora Pacelli is thrilled to finally be the official owner of Papa Pacelli’s Pizzeria. In an effort to make it feel more real, she decides to make some small changes to the pizzeria, and hires a contractor to install a pickup window in the back.
Ellie’s holiday cheer comes to an abrupt halt when a terrible tragedy occurs during construction. All of her plans for the pizzeria expansion, as well as holiday festivities, get put on hold as she and Russell race to find the killer before someone else gets hurt, but the killer is closer than she ever imagined.
Carolyn Q. Hunter - Killer Christmas Pie
Pies and Pages, Book 5
It's Christmas time and pie shop owner, Bertha Hannah, is gearing up with a brand new Gingerbread Pie and a little holiday shopping.
Off on their festive adventure, the ladies run into Detective Mannor--a man Bert recently turned down for a date—and the day heads rapidly downhill when a body is discovered in one of the mall's most popular shops. A cheerful season of peace and goodwill has turned blood red with homicide and it's up to Bert to figure out the mystery before Santa can say Ho-Ho-Ho.
Gretchen Allen - A Flurry of Murder
Sundae Afternoon, Book 6
In the quaint and cozy town of Heritage, Massachusetts, the annual Holiday Weekend event means pancake breakfasts, the Jingle Bell Bazaar, and the highlight, a tree lighting ceremony.
Drama ensues from the start of the yearly event, and as usual, ice cream shop manager, Yvette Lockhart, becomes wrapped up in the intrigue faster than you can say melted ice cream.
Thea Cambert - Murder Sets the Stage
Rooftop Garden, Book 2
It’s holiday festival time in picturesque Blue Valley, Tennessee, which means there’ll be plenty of fun, and an onslaught of tourists coming to town. This year, Paper Owl owner, and amateur sleuth, Alice Maguire, is helping out with organizing the Hometown Holidays Festival.
Life is good in the quaint little town, and it's shaping up to be a perfectly wonderful holiday, but when a body is discovered at the 5K, it’ll be up to Alice, Owen, and Franny to make sure that Blue Valley’s Hometown Holidays Festival gets back on track—and that means they’ll have to catch a murderer.
Allyssa Mirry - Cocoa Chaos
Parties on the Pier, Book 1
Event planner, Penelope Wilks stays busy with parties, even throughout the Jersey shore’s often blustery winter. Her business, Parties on the Pier, manages to thrive, with holiday celebrations and other occasions keeping her on her toes.
A tragic accident occurs during the peak of the holiday party season, and Penelope just can’t shake the idea the something feels ‘off’ about the whole set of circumstances. Her inquisitive nature takes over, and she digs deeper, finding an astonishing maze of intrigue and sabotage.
