About Us
We are a small, boutique publisher of quality women's genre fiction who work with a select number of authors per year. We enjoy stories with laughter, heart, and lots of clever plot twists. We don't publish books with graphic gore or sexual content, which makes our books perfect for sharing with your eighteen-year-old daughter or your eighty-year-old grandmother. Our titles are available in most major online retailers and by special request from brick & mortar bookstores and libraries.

Submissions
We are currently looking for novels in the cozy mystery and humorous romantic mystery genres!
60,000 - 80,000 words in length
Please no graphic sex or gore. Think network television ratings level, not HBO.
We are looking for novels that feature strong, independent, proactive women sleuths,
hot, enticing heroes and a heartwarming romance,
and a clever mystery with lots of twists and turns. We prefer a rich whodunit with a lot of suspects where the reader is surprised at the end.
We love humor! The funnier the better!
We are open to both small town AND big city settings.
Does this sound like your writing style? If so, please send us a) a cover letter telling us about you and your project, including the genre and word count, b) a synopsis of the book, c) the first 30 pages for the manuscript. Please allow 6-8 weeks for us to review your submission.
