A rash of burglaries?
What kind of job had she been hired to do?
CJ Turley is excited to begin her new life as overseer of Heavenly Acres, a tiny house community in the Ozark mountains. As she’s handed the keys to her new house, by a woman who seems far too eager to leave the job to someone else, CJ is told the community is experiencing a rash of burglaries and she should visit the nearby Park Ranger for help.
Can CJ and her new friends stop a thieving murderer before they lose something far more precious than jewels? Their life!
From the first day to spending time with a handsome ranger, Eric Drake, to a cast of quirky characters who are all suspect in CJ’s mind, you’re bound for a fun, hilarious, romp in this first book of a new small town, cozy mystery series by best-selling and award-winning author.

My Thoughts on No Small Caper:
What a cute mystery book. I hadn’t really heard of the genre cozy mystery until I read this book and now I’m ready to go read them all! This is definitely an author that I’m interested in reading more from as well. It read quickly and the characters drew me in. I figured it all out earlier than the end but had to keep reading to see how it all ended up.
CJ was a fun addition with her mystery and detection skills. I loved the idea of a tiny community of tiny houses. We live in a small house(not tiny though) with lots of people and animals but we have acres of land to explore so it doesn’t feel so cramped. It sounds like somewhere people would go to escape!
Or maybe where people would go when they’re hiding their criminal activities!?

More from Cynthia
I’ve always been fascinated by tiny houses and love writing cozy mysteries. What’s better than a cozy mystery series in a tiny house community? Not an inch of space wasted. You’ve got to be creative with your storage. Even hiding things in the floor which occurs when CJ Turley takes over as manager of Heavenly Acres. The pup she inherited when her grandmother died has a nose for diamonds. Who’d guess there were so many places in a tiny house to stash things?
I don’t live in a tiny house, but my husband and I downsized from a 2100 sq. ft home to a 1,000 sq. ft. home. Guess which one we prefer? The smaller one 😊 We always know where things are, it’s easier to keep clean, and no stairs to go up and down when we forget something. I’m pretty sure I couldn’t live in anything less than 400 sq. ft. if I lived alone, but it was fun to write about those who do.
I’ve watched so many tiny house shows, I’m pretty sure I could design one with everything I’d need. We even told our son that if he moved where we live, we’d build him one in the backyard! He wasn’t amused.
On a serious note, just kidding. While my cozy series has humor, they also have murder and mayhem with quirky characters and a dash of romance. I like my readers to chuckle as the characters strive to take down the culprit without too much danger to themselves.
Happy reading!

Our house feels small enough, with our largish family! I can see the appeal in tiny houses, though.
Erin S.
Yes! Same here. Our house is small with all our kids but I love tiny houses!
