"This is a good beginning to what I hope is a long running series. The mystery was nicely done with fast-pacing and well-written narrative. The characters were developed enough to keep me interesting in the role they played and I enjoyed following the crumbs the author planted for us to solve the puzzle."

~ Dru Ann Love

"Clutter Free is a cozy mystery with a dash of second chance romance set on Fox Island, where festivals may well hold secrets and the community is closer than you think. I enjoyed the setting as well as amateur sleuth and narrator Kate’s organizational skills, with her dogged determination to clear her brother’s name, along with the close friendships and protective natures of the men in her life."
