Claws & Crochet

by Lauren Connolly

Step into Pine Falls with Zoey, a self-proclaimed yarn enthusiast, as she navigates the unexpected after inheriting her grandmother's cabin. What starts as a simple cleaning task quickly unravels into a charming, yet surprisingly suspenseful, small-town mystery. Zoey finds herself inadvertently entangled with a local motorcycle club and its enigmatic leader, Warner, who sees her as more than just an out-of-towner. The book masterfully weaves a sweet, budding romance between two very different people—one human, one... not—against a backdrop of hidden dangers and local secrets. You'll feel the pull of their forbidden connection while trying to piece together who in Pine Falls doesn't want Zoey to stick around. It’s a delightful read for anyone who enjoys their paranormal romance with a generous helping of cozy mystery, a dash of quirky charm, and the heartwarming thrill of opposites attracting in a community full of surprises.
