A boyfriend who’s missing. Or was. . . Or is. . . A boat full of old bones. A community ice cream social. A friend in trouble. A spiteful witch, and an angry villain. The mysteries abound in Destiny Falls, but Hayden, Latifa and their family and friends are up for the excitement and adventure.
Old Bones and Ice Cream Cones follows the series format of combining two stories that blend into one. A murder mystery and the island mystery.
The Island Mystery: Hayden’s boyfriend Han is missing. But she swears she saw him zoom by in his car. She’d thought it was a surprise, and that he was home early from his secret service case. She was wrong. The surprise is that his signal isn’t pinging, and no one knows where he is. There appears to be black magic behind his disappearance. Can they learn who’s responsible and bring Han safely home?
The Murder Mystery: A pile of old bones is found in an ancient fishing boat. They could be tied to the disappearance of two young women years ago, back when many of the Destiny Falls people where in high school. Many of the citizens had bad history with the girls. Do the bones belong to those girls, and what happened? Were the girls murdered? And could the murderer be living among them?
Hayden’s many adventures in Destiny Falls will keep you guessing with each book in this intriguing series.

Falling Into Magic
Destiny Falls Mystery & Magic Series Book 1
An
accidental journey through a magic mirror. A portal to an enchanted
land. A mysterious family she never knew she had. Hayden's life is
upended with the wonder of Destiny Falls. But it is tainted by the
danger that brought her here and that threatens her newfound family.
Can Hayden and her sassy sidekick remove the threat, so that she can
begin her magical new life in this captivating world?
When
Hayden was a child, she lost her cat. Adults told her the cat ran
away, but she knew the truth. The mirror had taken her. She knew
because the mirror gave her a glimpse of an alternate world and had
nearly pulled her in, so she was certain the cat had suffered that
fate.
Twenty years later Hayden discovers the secret of the
mirror when she is thrust into it. She learns of an enchanted world
she never knew existed, and a family she never knew she had.
But
danger brought her here, and it followed her. Now, Hayden is on a
mission to remove the threat, so that she can begin her magical,
meaningful new life in this enchanted world filled with quirky
characters, a talking cat, and wonderful new friends and family that
welcomed her with open arms.
