Cozy mystery lovers, this one’s for you!  Are you ready for a peek at a great new cozy set to release soon… and, I dare say, a hint of spring?!?  (I’m more than ready for both!)

Today I’m participating in a blog tour through Shalini at Digital Reads Blog Tours!

Author James J. Cudney (Jay, as his friends know him) is a well traveled, well read guy from New York City.  In addition to being a genealogist and an avid reader and book reviewer, he has been writing a series called the Braxton Campus Mysteries.

In this series, we meet Kellan, a single dad who comes home for his father’s retirement party as he prepares to leave a long career at Braxton College.  But, as usually happens in a cozy series, things don’t go according to plan, and Kellan gets swept into a precarious situation!

This cover reveal was actually fun timing for me, as I’m just starting to read book one of this series!  I always recommend starting at the beginning, so first pick up Academic Curveball, then move on to Broken Heart Attack.  (Both are available in either Kindle e-book or paperback.)

And finally… we come to the latest installment, set to be released in late March.  May I present:  Flower Power Trip!

See, I told you… a hint of spring along with a fabulous new title!! Here’s a little more info about the new book:

At a masquerade ball to raise money for renovations to Memorial Library, Kellan finds a dead body dressed in a Dr. Evil costume.

Did one of Maggie’s sisters kill the annoying guest who’d been staying at the Roarke and Daughters Inn, or does the victim have a closer connection to someone else at Braxton College?

As Kellan helps school president Ursula bury a secret from her past and discover the identity of her stalker, he unexpectedly encounters a missing member of his family. Everything seems to trace back to the Stoddards: a new family who recently moved in.

Between the murder, a special flower exhibit and strange postcards arriving each week, Kellan can’t decide which mystery in his life should take priority.  But unfortunately, the biggest one of all has yet to be exposed – and when it is, Kellan won’t know what hit him.

You can pre-order this title today… grab the first two while you’re at it, and you’ll be all set when Flower Power Trip releases on March 30th! (That’s the e-book version… a paperback of the title will be available at a later date!)

Thanks for stopping by to check out the cover reveal.  I hope you have some great books picked out and you’re ready to relax this weekend!  Happy Friday… and happy reading!
