The Lady of the Lakewood Diner by @AnneRAllen #Humor for #Kindle



Who shot Morgan Le Fay?

Someone has shot the aging bad-girl rocker and threatens to finish the job. Is it fans of her legendary dead rock-god husband, Merlin? Or is the secret buried in her childhood hometown of Avalon,
Maine?

Morgan's childhood best friend Dodie, the no-nonsense owner of a dilapidated diner, may be the only one who knows the dark secret that can save Morgan's life.

And both women may find that love really is better the second time around.

Smart, funny women's fiction for the Woodstock Generation.

This prequel to the Camilla Randall mysteries romps through the glitzy 1980s, when 19-year-old Camilla loses everything: her fortune, her gay best friend, and eventually her freedom.

Catherine Ryan Hyde, best-selling author of "Pay It Forward" and "Love In The Present Tense."

"Dark, twisted chick lit with a side of laughter. Plus celebrities, murder and and a smart-mouth nanny." Ruth Harris. NYT best-selling author of "Modern Women", "Decades" and "Husbands & Lovers".

When Nicky Conway meets Fitzgerald-quoting Alistair at a Princeton mixer in 1969, she falls for his retro, Jazz-Age charm.

Ghost Writers In the Sky by Anne R. Allen

Look! A Kindle Romantic Mystery for $2.99 / £1.53!




A Camilla Randall Mystery 

Dorothy Parker meets Agatha Christie.

"Chick-lit noir with a side of funny." - Ruth Harris, NYT best-selling author of "Modern Women" and "Husbands and Lovers".

"Chick-lit for brunettes." - Saffina Desforges, Kindle UK best-selling author of "Sugar & Spice" and the "Rose Red" crime thriller series.

After her celebrity ex-husband’s ironic joke about her “kinky sex habits” is misquoted in a tabloid, New York etiquette columnist Camilla Randall’s life unravels in bad late-night TV jokes.

Nearly broke and down to her last Herme’s scarf, she accepts an invitation to a Z-list Writers’ Conference in the wine-and-cowboy town of Santa Ynez, California, where, unfortunately, a cross-dressing dominatrix named Marva plies her trade by impersonating Camilla.

When a ghostwriter’s plot to blackmail celebrities with faked evidence leads to murder, Camilla must team up with Marva to stop the killer from striking again.

Grab yourself a glass of wine, a box of chocolates and a comfy sofa, and enjoy.

Reviews:

"The setting for this fast-moving mystery is that glamorous rural celebrity playground we've all seen backdropping upscale Westerns, the scenarios we'd love to live in if we but had the resources. Anne Allen creates a very recognizable facsimile of the classic Western, complete with the classic personas, to play out clever contortions of murder and mystery. All sorts of wannabe writers mill around the rustic setting of a writers' conference: dewy, suspicious, earnest, and funny, to populate the action with fascinating suspects. It's fun to read because of her ingenious and witty style. "

"If you're looking for pure entertainment with a nostalgic feel, and a game of follow the clues, you'll love this novel as much as I did."

Sherwood Ltd. by Anne R. Allen

Here's a Kindle Romance Novel Mystery for $2.99 / £1.53!



A Camilla Randall Mysteries!

Sherwood.

The name immediately conjures up images of Richard Greene, Michael Praed and Russel Crowe. Or maybe that sly fox in the Disney version.

Only, in Anne R. Allen's latest rom-com mystery the fox is a coyote and there's no Robin Hood.

Or is there?

In her usual inimitable fashion Allen peels back the layers, one hilarious subplot after another, until you just never know what's real and what's not. Rather like the Robin Hood legend.

When the Manners Doctor, Camilla Randall, flies into Robin Hood airport with a suitcase in one hand and a book contract in the other she thinks she's leaving all her problems behind and is about to start a new life.

If you look very carefully you may just spot the Sheriff of Nottingham, Maid Marian and even Little John hidden away. But as for Robin Hood himself... You'll just have to read it and find out.

Reviews:

"Fast paced, adult content, well constructed, delightful."

"Nottingham was never as much fun as it is in Anne Allen's twisted take on Robin Hood and his porny men. And who better to wield her wit and wide-eyed innocence than Camilla Randall, the Manners Doctor? Sherwood Limited is hysterical good fun. You'll chortle your way through Camilla's hardships, find yourself flummoxed by a stunningly portrayed citizen of Buttonwillow, meet Much the miller's son in his canine form, and you'll root root root for your favorite Manners Doctor in her new porn-publisher-wants-to-try-something-literary world."
