  1. Stepping away from her fantastic Key news series, Mary Jane graciously gives readers a brand new series filled with new characters. It is so refreshing to enter a world of suspense that does not have to use gore and sex to fill the pages. The wedding cake mysteries are page turners and I can't wait to read more of them!
