What are people saying about Bloom and Doom?

“Bloom and Doom captivated my attention from the very first page. With the meanings of flowers skillfully woven throughout the story, it was as delightful as a freshly cut bouquet of ranunculus (radiant charm) and tarragon (lasting interest). Beverly Allen writes wonderfully engaging characters in a lovely small town setting. Audrey Bloom, the heroine, is quick-witted and clever as she unravels the mystery, which was a puzzler right up to the dramatic end.  A thoroughly entertaining and engaging mystery!  I can't wait for the next one!”--New York Times bestselling author Jenn McKinlay

"It’s an engaging bouquet of mayhem and murder. What a delight for cozy readers!"—Erika Chase, national bestselling author of the Ashton Corners Book Club Mysteries

    Barbara Early

    earned an engineering degree, but after four years of doing nothing but math, developed a sudden allergy to the subject and decided to choose another occupation.

    Before she settled on murdering fictional people, she was a secretary, a school teacher, a pastor’s wife, and an amateur puppeteer. After several years living elsewhere, she and her husband moved back to her native Western New York State, where she enjoys cooking, crafts, classic movies and campy seventies television, board games, and posting pictures of her four cats on Facebook.

    ​She writes the Vintage Toyshop series and the Bridal Bouquet Shop Mysteries (as Beverly Allen).
