Hi everyone! Hope the new year is off to a great start for
you. Winter is certainly here, and if you’re looking for a few great reads to
pass the time while you’re indoors, I’ve got just what you need.
In this issue of the Quill I’m sharing news about my long-awaited
new paranormal mystery/romance novel, getting you ready for Valentine’s Day,
and offering up a few February frights! Let’s get started….
New Release… In Another World
In January 2022, Kelli released In Another World. This
contemporary romance novel blends a murder mystery with the world of the
paranormal.
In Another World
A Paranormal Mystery/Romance Novel
Disgraced psychic medium Julie Kershaw has finally met her
soul mate. The problem is he’s dead… and his spirit haunts the car she just
bought.
The spirit of Detective Eddie Mahoney is determined to find
his killer and needs Julie’s help. At first, she refuses. She’s tired of being
called crazy and swore she’d never use her abilities to speak to the dead
again—even if Eddie is handsome and charming.
Eddie persuades Julie to contact his former partner, Lou
Kaplonski, to ask him to reopen his case. Skeptical, Lou dismisses Julie as a
fake—until she proves she can communicate with the dead—and he finds out Eddie
has a lot to say.
Julie channels Eddie’s spirit and together with Lou, the
unusual trio tracks down leads and follows clues to solve Eddie’s murder. The
case takes them down a dark and dangerous path filled with secrets, where
nobody can be trusted.
As they work to find his killer, Julie falls for Eddie.
Funny, smart, and sexy, Eddie is the guy of her dreams—and he doesn’t look or
act the least bit dead. To her surprise, Eddie discovers a clever way they can
be together, and they begin an ethereal romance.
When Lou’s investigation brings him too close to the killer,
his life and Julie’s are put in danger—and Eddie may be the only one who can
save them.

One afternoon, Valerie visits a flea market and meets a

of the dead. Despite her protests, the man insists that she must have the
statue. Valerie gives in and brings her new “guardian” home.
Later that night, Valerie awakens to discover an intruder
has broken into her house. She’s forced to fight for her life and relies on
Anubis to save her.
When the police investigate, they make a shocking discovery
about her attacker and his motive. Only then does Valerie realize how lucky she
was— the statue was the last thing she wanted, but exactly what she needed.

Katie doesn’t like going to estate sales. Why? Because she
sees dead people.
When Katie reluctantly attends an estate sale with her
friend Diane, she gets more than she bargained for. The deceased former owner

a lot to say.
As Katie pretends to shop, Grace tells her the story of how
she was murdered—and reveals that her killer is still in the house.

the police… before time runs out.

And her personal favorite…
Nightmare in the North - a cautionary tale about traveling
alone in the winter…
Nightmare in the North
Stranded during a violent blizzard, Mark hikes to the only
house nearby. George, a well-mannered University professor, welcomes Mark and
gives him shelter from the storm.
By morning, Mark suspects that everything isn’t what it
seems. George’s adult daughter, Kate, who also lives in the house, shares a
disturbing and unsettling tale. When questioned, George insists that Kate has a
psychological issue and can’t be trusted to tell the truth.
Mark quickly finds himself caught in a game of cat and
mouse. Who should he believe? Is Kate’s desperate plea for help sincere? Should
he be suspicious of George? Or are both of them plotting something together?
Isolated from everyone, Mark is forced to wait out the
storm—and find a way to escape—if he hopes to make it out alive.

Kelli’s Continuing Blog Series…
Last year, Kelli started two new blog series. The first is
called Behind the Scenes. Each Behind the Scenes blog examines her romance
novels. She talks about why she wrote the book, shares thoughts on the plot
and/or characters, and reveals what she loved most (or least) about writing the
book.
The second blog series is called Meet the Character Day.
These blogs are fun chats with the heroes and heroines from my romances.
Each series is featured on both of her blogs. If you missed
one, you can catch up here:
