Description from the publisher:
An inept witch. A talking pink iguana. A town trying to solve a lawman’s murder.

Hi, I’m Glinda Goodall—the Good Witch of the South—and I want to welcome you to Witch’s Cove, Florida, a delightful beach town where witches and humans reside in peace and harmony. Sounds perfect, right? Yeah, that’s what it says on the billboard, but here’s the real scoop.  My aunt, who runs the Tiki Hut Grill where I work, sees ghosts—or rather sees one of them—namely her dead husband. My mom, a funeral director, is addicted to all things that have to do with The Wizard of Oz. She even has a terrier named Toto. And then there’s my familiar, Iggy, who is a very disgruntled pink iguana who fancies himself a detective.  As for me, I’m a problem solver. My flaws are that I’m way too nosy for my own good, and I rarely say the right thing at the right time.  

This week’s exciting news? Our not-so-beloved law enforcement officer was murdered, and my best friend’s brother was accused of the crime. I have to help find the real killer, right? How could I not?

Stop in to Witch’s Cove and grab a meal at the Tiki Hut Grill. You just might see me and my familiar in action.

PINK IS THE NEW BLACK is the first book in the Witch’s Cove Mystery series.  This is not a romance (yet). No bad language, no sex, no graphic violence.

This is a really cute story with colorful characters and entertaining dialogue.  

I love THE WIZARD OF OZ, but Glinda’s mother is obsessed.  So much so, that Glinda’s name is what it is, and the mother’s Cairn Terrier is Toto.  That is just the beginning of what is so colorful about the characters.

This was a fun cozy mystery that included lots of paranormal antics and the reliance on good friends.  I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story and hope to read more of the series.

Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
