"Hillary Avis "A Cop and a Coop" (not sure if that is the first one) and Nancy Warren "Vampire Knitting Club" series (more of a cozy mystery than vampire genre. It takes place in England.) Oh, and Tonya Kappes "Beaches, Bungalows, and Burglaries," the first in the Camper Cozy Mystery series."
"I generally loooove Jenny Colgan, but this book is really just rubbing me the wrong way. There is so much that grates me about the characters and I keep trying to force myself to keep reading and maybe it will just get better if I keep going. It's not though and I need to stop because it is getting me frustrated. Maybe I will come back to it at another time and enjoy more. That time just isn't now."
