Allison Janda
Writer, creative and owner of Curly Q Media, Allison Janda has dreams of writing a New York Times Bestseller and believes that most life challenges should be faced while one is holding a glass of wine and a Reese’s. Her writing talents started at a young age and just kept blooming.
After attending Marquette University, Allison made a few pit stops on her way to becoming a full-time writer but never lost sight of the dream. She began a project entitled 365 With A Twist wherein she would write short stories along with a photograph she’d taken that day. When Allison couldn’t get one of the shorts out of her head, she knew that this was to be her first full-length novel. Allison finished her first book, Sex, Murder & Killer Cupcakes just in time to enter a first-time mystery writers contest. While she didn’t win that $10,000 contract, Allison scored something much better: the novel bug that had been laying dormant since she wrote her first book about a cow on roller skates back in first grade. Granted, it had only been 10 pages, so does that really count? Allison’s mother would say “yes.” |

She may be a crime-scene photographer, but that doesn’t mean Marian Moyer is ready to star in her own murder mystery. Most days, she can’t even control her hair. But when the star of Marian’s racy, underground magazine turns up dead and the police are convinced she’s the guilty party, it’s up to Marian to find out who really did it before it’s too late. While danger isn't exactly her middle name, there’s plenty to go around, especially when Marian begins to suspect that her long-time man crush is behind it all. |

Book 2 in the Marian Moyer series! It has been a little over a month since Marian was almost murdered. Thankfully, she’s settling nicely back into her calm, somewhat boring Milwaukee life with Fred, the red betta fish. That is, until her mother calls with news that will turn everything upside down. With her niece missing and the suspect pool looking suspiciously familiar, it’s up to Marian to find Riley before a long hidden secret threatens to rip her family apart. All of that while Marian simultaneously dates college crush, James, and handsome newcomer, Mika? Surely nothing can go wrong along the way. |
Scandal, Temptation & A Taste of Flan
Mystery and Crime
Book 3 in the Marian Moyer series! Kidnapped. Nearly murdered – twice. Marian Moyer has spent the last few months avoiding any and all drama. Save for that time she decided whether she’d turn up the heat with smoldering James Holden or heart-stopping Mika Andrushkiv. Unfortunately, Marian’s drama-free days are over with the arrival of Hollywood starlet Carmen Suarez. Brought in to model for Food Porn, Carmen’s face on the magazine cover will host benefits that, until now, Marian has only dreamt about. If she can just survive Carmen’s attitude, that is. But when Carmen turns up dead and all fingers point to Marian’s BFF and business partner, Addison Dawes, Marian is forced to uncover the real truth behind Carmen’s death. Of course, what she finds brings several long-buried secrets to the surface – secrets that might have been better left unknown. |
