Broomsticks & Blooms
Enjoy this witty, small town paranormal, cozy mystery by award-winning and bestselling author Lucinda Race.
Welcome to Pembroke Cove, where witches and murders are multiplying...
Bookstore owner and witch, Lily Michaels, is prepared for takeoff. She’s on cloud nine after finally obtaining her permit for broom-flying lessons. But her excitement comes crashing down when she stumbles over another dead body. All she wanted to do was discuss flower arrangements for her upcoming wedding—however, somebody had other plans for the unfortunate florist.
At the crime scene, Detective Gage Erikson, a.k.a. Detective Cutie, discovers a menacing message on the floor of the flower shop. Its target: Lily—he’s sure of that. Though he appreciates Lily’s extraordinary abilities, his puzzle-loving fiancée has a unique talent for attracting trouble. This time, he’s determined to keep her out of the investigation. Is this message meant to throw him off the scent of the killer?
Keeping Lily out of a murder investigation is like telling the sun not to rise. It’s not like this will be the first time she bends—okay, breaks—the rules. Suspicions and threats are sprouting like mushrooms in a dank shack. Flying high can lead to falling far—and this time, her life’s not the only one on the line. Can Lily follow the clues and solve the puzzle of the florist’s death before her dreams of a happily ever after with Gage end up as dead as last year’s roses?
Broomsticks & Blooms is the tenth novel in the A Book Store Cozy Mystery Series; although each book can be read as a standalone, it is best to read them in order. It is a small town, cozy mystery that guarantees the culprit is caught. Happy reading!

Cozy Pairings
Book of Spells is a deep and atmospheric fragrance that blends the richness of dark chocolate with smooth sandalwood and the earthy depth of black tea. Warm and layered, this scent carries a subtle dryness reminiscent of aged pages, balanced by a soft, lingering sweetness. The result is a fragrance that feels both grounding and slightly unexpected, with a warmth that settles gently into the space. Rich without being heavy, it creates an inviting, bookish atmosphere that lingers beautifully in the air.
Why we chose this: Lily Michaels runs the Cozy Nook Bookstore in the small seaside town of Pembroke Cove, Maine, and she has recently discovered that she is a witch, her cat Milo talks, and murders keep happening with a frequency that her detective fiancé finds both alarming and entirely predictable. Book of Spells is the candle for every book in this series, deep and atmospheric and bookish, dark chocolate and warm sandalwood and the earthy depth of black tea that smells like a beloved bookshop where magic and mystery have made themselves completely at home. Light this candle and let the warmth fill the room like a cozy New England bookstore on a day when Milo has something important to say and Gage is about to find out Lily has been sleuthing again.
