Hi, readers! I'm so excited to announce my new release to you. SLAY BELLS RING, my seventh Caprice De Luca Home Staging mystery is a holiday cozy. It is available in print and ebook. I hope I have captured the warmth of the holidays and multi-faceted characters, as well as sentiments of the season.
The Santa cabin in SLAY BELLS RING is based on the cabin in Hanover,
PA where both my husband and son visited Santa when they were children.The Merriweather's house that Caprice stages looks something like this!
The dog is SLAY BELLS RING plays an important role. His name is BLITZ and he's a white Malamute.

Preview of SLAY BELLS RING
Christopher and Sara
Merriweather have the perfect life. They
are selling their beautiful historic home that Caprice De Luca stages with the
theme Christmas Delight. They plan to downsize.
Their grown children are in the vicinity and their craft shop is doing
well. Blitz, the white Malamute Chris
rescued, is always by his side. A
Vietnam veteran, Chris has come to terms with his PTSD and even plays Santa
Claus. When he is murdered at the sleigh
on Santa Lane not far from Santa's cabin, everyone is shocked. (Blitz may have seen the murderer.) As Caprice delves into the Merriweathers'
lives, she discovers more than one secret.

USA TODAY Bestselling Author Karen Rose Smith is an only child who delved into books at an early age. She learned about kindred spirits from Anne of Green Gables, solved mysteries with Nancy Drew and wished she could have been the rider on The Black Stallion. Yet even though she escaped often into story worlds, she had many aunts, uncles and cousins around her on weekends. Her sense of family and relationships began there. Maybe that's why families are a strong theme in her novels, whether mysteries or romances. This award-winning and bestselling author will have her 100th novel released in 2018. At present she is working on two mystery series for Kensington Books--Caprice De Luca Home Staging cozies and Daisy's Tea Garden mysteries. From time to time, she also writes romance for Harlequin Special Edition.

Readers often ask her about her pastimes. She has herb, flowers and vegetable gardens that help her relax. In the winter, she cooks and does watercolor paintings rather than gardens. And year round she spends most of her time with her husband, as well as her four rescued cats who are her constant companions. They chase rainbows from sun catchers, reminding her life isn't all about work, awards and bestseller lists. Everyone needs that rainbow to chase.
Karen looks forward to interacting with readers. They can find her at the links below.
