Welcome to Sky Valley, Georgia—a scenic town set in the heart of Rabun County, full of lush trees, greeneries, mountains, and nice people. It is paradise on earth; a place that you’d aspire to come home to. But gasp some of the people really aren’t every nice and this seemingly serene place has secrets hidden within. After spending seven years in Paris, Emmy is back in Sky Valley to set up her own wedding gown store and help her father, famous coffee shop owner and restaurateur Troy Byrne, with one of their coffee and pastry shops, Time for Coffee. Emmy realizes that not everything is what it seems anymore, and that a lot has changed since she left. Take for instance her good, old friend Annabeth Meyer, who’s now getting married to her ex, Matthew Mills. It was a whirlwind romance, they said, and Emmy has to design her own gown for her, and she has to help with the festivities, too. But there are other things that Emmy has to know... There’s also Audrina, her dad’s assistant, who seems to be a nice girl but is known to have a temper, and Tripp Meyer, Annabeth’s dad whom Emmy has always hated. How will they affect Emmy’s life now?

Emmy had the perfect life in Paris but because her father asked her to help him with the family business, she decided to go home to Sky Valley, Georgia. Sky Valley’s a small town—but it had a lot of secrets, murderous and uncanny ones, lurking within. Almost a year ago, Annabeth Meyer died in front of Emmy and Matthew, Annabeth’s husband. They didn’t know what happened, and Emmy was thought of as one of the suspects herself until a man named Jimmy came forward and took the blame. But somehow, things didn’t seem right... Six months ago, Ruby Kline, Daniel’s ex-girlfriend hired Emmy to be her wedding coordinator...and then Ruby died after her car fell off a cliff which prompted Emmy to break up with Daniel, her boyfriend. After a while and a whole lot of confusion, Emmy thought that she finally found love again in the arms of Frank Holt, the new guy, who actually turned out to be someone whom Emmy couldn’t trust—and that thought almost killed her.

Beaches. Coffee. Weddings. Murder? Is it possible to move on after a troubled past? Or will the past always catch up with you and ruin you in more ways than you can handle? After having to deal with the deaths of her old friends Annabeth and Matthew, Emmy was asked to be the wedding coordinator of a certain Scarlet Levi. She wanted the wedding to be held at The Sky Valley Resort where Beaches and Coffee, the coffee shop that Emmy's family owns is located. Beaches and Coffee was popular for its ambience and tranquility--things that a lot of people want. Emmy was hesitant but she knew that she couldn't let the opportunity pass because it would help their business recover and it would finally help them move on with their lives. Plus, she also felt good because her relationship with Daniel, the man who has her heart, is growing. Everything seemed to be perfect. Everything finally seemed to go get way. But there's a catch--of course, there's a catch.

Emmy’s not new in the sleuthing game. She figured out who was behind the murders that almost ruined her family, she was able to help out a ghost who needed to figure out who killed her, and she thought that the dark days are over...but now, it feels like they’re starting all over again. After being invited to a dinner party at the Byrne's house because of a new business deal that Emmy's dad ventured in, Emmy and Daniel, alongside the rest of the guests were surprised to find Wendy, Emmy and Dan's cat, jumping on one of the guests: A man named Caleb Roberts--Troy Byrne's new business partner. Is Wendy just being catty? Or is there anything else--something graver, crazier--that Emmy should know, especially because that same night, Caleb's wife, Rose, was found dead? Seems like there's a killer on the loose--and it's up to Emmy and Wendy to figure out the truth. Read how it all goes in The Sky Valley Cozy Mystery Cat Series Book 1: The Cat Who Smelled Murder Out now!
