🍂 Welcome back to the Nettles B&B-where holiday pies are warm, wishes have consequences, and the ghosts are always thankful for dessert.

Nan and Mossy Nettles are preparing for a stormy Thanksgiving celebration with their stranded guests, a dining table full of harvest delights, and a house that still hasn't revealed all its secrets. But when a mummified monkey's paw escapes from Bithia's séance trunk in the attic, strange things begin to stir.

Trapped indoors by an autumn storm-except for the determined local pickleball crew-guests begin making wishes without realizing they're being granted... with ironic and sometimes chaotic results. ​​​​​​​Meanwhile, the resident pixies seize the chance for mischief, and the house's ever-watchful spirits-curious Victorian sisters Bithia and Cordelia-quietly observe as the mystery unfolds.

In this house, every heirloom has a story... and this one is clawing to be told.

🕯️ Featuring a warm, whimsical mix of paranormal mischief, autumnal nostalgia, and a guest list full of quirky characters (including a few who might not be entirely alive), Mums and Pumpkin Pie is the third book in the Nettles B&B Para Cozy series-where small-town charm meets magical realism with a generous side of homemade dessert.

🎃 Includes a bonus cookbook!

After the story, enjoy a lovingly curated collection of seasonal recipes by Cordon Bleu-trained chef Teresa Sebring. From pumpkin pie to holiday comfort food passed down through generations, these family favorites are brimming with flavor, nostalgia, and soul.
