Texas-connected mystery roundup<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Welcome to Texas Reads Mysteries<\/em>, where I get to share my love of books. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

October! <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A time when the ancient Celtics believed the dead walked the earth. A time for magic. A time for ghouls, goblins, ghosts, witches, and all the other things that go bump in the night. A time to curl up in an easy chair and settle back with a spooky, eerie tale. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Be ready to be thrilled, chilled, and enchanted with these spellbinding stories about very different witches. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

She\u2019s been told to let things happen on their own and not to interfere. So difficult\u2014and unfair! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nOn the night of her neighbor\u2019s birthday party, Brielle\u2019s drunk a little too much tequila. While on her way back to her home next door, a man calls to her and plants the kiss of a lifetime on her lips. Only thing is, Brielle doesn\u2019t have the first clue about who he is. Or what he looks like. Yet she can\u2019t get him out of her mind. Or the taste of his kiss off her lips. How is she ever going to find him? <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nAdd in a cryptic vision, a cigar-smoking messenger, and three newcomers to Satcher Glen, each with a mystery to unravel. Could one of these be the man who had kissed her? And how can she find the answer without interfering with the magic realm?  <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nAbout the Author <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.carolkilgore.net\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Carol Kilgore<\/a><\/strong> is the award-winning author of the House Witches Mysteries.

When her older, carefree sister, Eustace\u2014a cannabis grower in Boulder\u2014calls to inform her that the great aunt they never met has died and they must travel to a small town in Connecticut to deal with the estate, she sees an opportunity to unload the house and save herself. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nBut once there, the sisters learn they are getting much more than they bargained for. The Victorian mansion they stand to inherit is bound in a dynasty trust controlled by their late aunt’s aging attorney, who insists they retain and inhabit the house but keeps them in the dark about the peculiar rituals of their ancestors. Not to mention a sexy, tattooed groundskeeper with a shrouded past who refuses to leave the carriage house and a crypt full of dead relatives looming at the property line. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nAs both women grapple with their current predicament, they come face to face with a haunting family secret, the truth of what happened to their mother, and the enemy that’s been stalking them from the shadows for generations. In a twisting torrent of terror and blood, the sisters must uncover the power within them to heal their fractured relationship, reverse their mysteriously declining health, and claim the lineage they wanted to escape but now must embrace if they are to survive at Bone Hill. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\nAbout the Author <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.avamorgyn.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ava Morgyn<\/a><\/strong> is a native Texan who grew up falling in love with all the wrong characters in all the wrong stories.
