Publisher's summary
A town of wonky magic. A fencer stabbed by her own blade. Can Twizzie untangle the twisted mystery?
Twizzle Twist isn’t your normal real estate pixie. Nor is St. Maurice your normal Southern California town. The magic in the valley belches at the worst time. The faerock vein in St. Mo marks the local fae in uncomfortable ways. Twizzie’s gimpy wing and bum leg are the least of her worries when she’s hired to show a cute new resident homes for sale in St. Maurice.
She has her wings busy trying to keep her mind on the sale, and not her cute client. Their house-hunting lunges off-target when the first showing comes with more than either of them bargained for. The owner is dead, stabbed in the back with her own sword.
St. Maurice’s has one of the few remaining amusement piers on the west coast. And someone is twisting the town council to tear it down. Twizzie’s home above the merry-go-round, as well as the businesses of her friends, may become a pile of timber as new development pushes into the seaside town.
With a murderer on the loose, a cute vampire she needs to sell a home to, so she won’t break her rule about dating clients, and the imminent demise of her home, Twizzie has too many strikes to dodge all at once.
Will Twizzie and her friends pull the right cord to untangle the twisted knot of intrigue in their sleepy village? If you love mysteries with a dash of quirky characters, a dose of warped magic, and snarky humour, buy your copy of A Twisted Riposte today to lunge into this mystery.

Barista April Storm longs for more than making a mean macchiato and talking to her ex-boyfriend’s ghost. So when her quirky Aunt Rose asks her to help open a hip café in the rural area near the Welsh and English border, she jumps at the chance to start fresh. Little does she know what lies in store for her when spirits begin to arrive, asking for help in solving their murders. Assisted by her spectral ex, a magical secret agent, and a talking cat named Punkin, she finds herself in hot water time after time. Can April serve up justice before a brewing disaster boils over?

Story
Stormy “Breeze” Morgan was living the high life until her dreams came crashing down around her and she lost her book contract. With nothing left to do—and no money in her bank account—she’s forced to return to the family business, a diner in Northern Lower Michigan. Stormy never thought she would have to work with her family again, and it’s just as horrific as she expected. Things only get worse when, after a night of drinking with her cousin, a family Ouija board leads to a burst of magic and Stormy wakes floating over her bed the next morning.

Luna Thorn’s past is a mystery...even to herself. She arrived in Detroit amid a swirl of lights and magic. She had no memory of where she came from. No idea why she was there. Years later, she’s established herself as a force to be reckoned with on the Detroit magical scene. She ingratiated herself with the local reapers. She set up a community called the Cathedral to help those who had been displaced from their homes and families, declaring that nobody would fall through the cracks. Still, doubt remains.

My life was going just fine by most standards. I ran a successful business in a tight-knit magical community, and lived just blocks from a beautiful lake and series of hiking trails. Then Selene showed up. According to some magical code I inherit my aunt's ancient familiar; a grumpy ten-pound cat with a broken filter. She fancies herself something of a saber-toothed tiger, and claims to have wrestled the thread of her ninth life from the hands of the Fates themselves—although, I'm pretty sure that last part isn't true. Almost positive.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

I'm not your average girl. My best friend is my switchblade. My favorite hobby is using it on the cruel, the abusive, and anyone who gets on my bad side. I'm a convicted murderer with a chip on my shoulder and a dangerous lack of restraint. And then there's Zak. His rap sheet makes mine look tame. The bounty on his head is worth more money than I'll ever make, and the deadly fae that shadow his every step wield more power than I'll ever know. He's the Crystal Druid, and his first mistake was setting foot on my turf. His second was saving my life.

Well done
Welcome to Saint Maurice , home of Twizzle a real estate agent ,a pixie, a good friend to everybody she knows.......and she has a limp
with the help of cane she goes around on her bisniss .The aera is know for it's 'fearock' what triggers defects in anyone magickal
It's good to have a setting where disabilities are not treated as something to be pitied or scorned.
.
There's a nice flurry of folks around her like the wizard Hop , the mermaid coffee shop owner Amanda, Mort the cat/dragon and Billie Quinn the journalist with many hats. Everyone has a story to tell in St Maurice, because of the Faerock mine under the town it causes magic to act strangely and some of the residents were born with conditions caused by the Faerock
There were twists and turns in this book, some of them to do with the characters’ personalities and how not everyone is quite how they seem at first impression. And I loved that! That’s what I want, in a mystery, to be misled. And misled I was! I thought I knew whodunit… and boy was I wrong! Thumbs up for this book!
Alyn has the rare ability to paint with words without repeating her self over and over again .
A great start to a new series and I am looking forward to the next book

Good story, great twist robot reading?
Thought I would check this title out since I really liked Mystic Brews by the author. Good story, setting has charm and is interesting so are the effects on the environment. Feel like the characters will be fun to go on adventures with and figure out the mysteries.
Narrator sounded very mechanical like a call prompt menu. Maybe the kid in class that doesn't like to read aloud. No real emotion or inflection in her tone comes through. That is something I look for in an audio book.

Great Listening
This is a neat fast moving story that takes you right into from the first page. Lots of neat characters, everyone of whom I suspected was the culprit. The entire town is well laid out, which is good since you get to see a good bit of it.
I'm on to book two now.
Highly recommended.
