Pause Tiles

The Pause Tiles app Just So game mode

A gift from our family to yours:

The new Pause Tiles app is now available free on the Apple App Store (an Android version is on its way). A meditative tile-matching game with four ways to play, it's made entirely of hand-cut paper art — no scores, no timers, no noise. Designed for when it's all too much: take a pause, then get back out there.

Every tile set is created from hand-crafted paper art, with more sets available in-app and a sticker set included with each theme. Pause Tiles works on iPhones and iPads, and even on the Mac. Find out all about the new app at PauseTiles.com.

Toasted: A Snack-Sized Mystery Wedding

In the fifth book of the amateur sleuth mystery series, Toasted: A Snack-Sized Mystery Wedding, food blogger Murph Murphy's past floods into his present like a tidal wave of sticky caramel he can't escape. Murph and weddings have never been a perfect pairing. A dead body, unexpected guests, and losing his closest ally don't improve his appetite for the lavish Florida destination wedding.

At least the beach will be nice, right?

Ever-hungry food critic and amateur sleuth Murph Murphy rights culinary wrongs and serves criminals their just desserts in the Snack-Sized Mystery series, where Hallmark mysteries meet food TV. Each book in the bingeable series offers readers quick and satisfying dips into the cut-throat world of an inquisitive foodie.

Travel with Murph as he seeks out perpetrators of crimes against food and man.
