No Small Caper ~ Cynthia Hickey

This is book 1 of the A Tiny House Series.  When CJ takes on a new job of caretaker to a rental and vacation lodging complex.  When there is someone breaking in and stealing from the renters of the housing, CJ is determined to find out who the criminal is.  She meets all of her neighbors, including Eric the very handsome ranger that patrols the complex.  CJ meets everyone in the tiny houses and befriends a few that are determined to help find the thief.  CJ and Eric along with a few friends start to investigate the crimes and take matters into their own hands.  Will be able to save the neighborhood, stop the thefts and keep Eric on her side?

I would recommend this book to those that enjoy a fun, entertaining and light mystery.  This is a great fun, summer afternoon read.  I found all the characters to be funny, interesting and down to earth.  When I started to read this book, I couldn't put it down, I was drawn into the fun world of this neighborhood and laughing right along with the different neighbors, personalities and friendships.  Once you finish you are ready to start reading book 2 in the series, very addicting read.  Would make a good Hallmark Murder and Mysteries series.

“No one does a final suspense scene like Cynthia Hickey!” – Stewart Writing Services

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 first day, to spending time with 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.

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 have 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!
