Ellen Jane


Release Date: October 25th, 2019

Cupcakes, romance, and lovable canines abound in Heather and Sinead’s next adventure, but it isn’t all fun and games. The girlfriends are investigating a very personal kidnapping, and the threatening notes left behind accuse Sinéad and her punk-rocker twin brother of hiding something.

But after solving their first mystery together last Christmas, this one should be a piece of cake.After all, no one’s been murdered this time, and their witch-sorcerer rivalry is a thing of the past.Except it turns out there is a murderer, and a jewel thief as well, and why on earth does everyone keep talking about bees?
 
It appears Starford is a lot more exciting than Heather’s home town of Old Wetchhaven, and Sinéad’s insistence that Heather move in with her brings a whiff of trouble to their private paradise. Can Heather adjust to life near the big city? Or will the mounting secrets prove too much and turn their second case into their last?
​
A Hive of Secrets and Spells is a witch cozy mystery with a sweet lesbian romance and heart-warming magic.

An Exclusive Excerpt From A Hive of Secrets and Spells ~ 

“Can you prove you’re my brother?” Sinéad asked.

“You mean you don’t just feel it?” Cian held his hand over his heart and crumpled his face. “I’m wounded.”

Sinéad leaned forward and bared her teeth in a smile. “Cut the crap. You’ve got ten minutes before I’m walking out of here.”

Cian mirrored her pose, grinning laconically at her as they leaned in almost nose to nose. “When’s your birthday?”

“March second.”

“Mine too.” He made a show of gasping in delight. “Twinsies!”

Heather gaped at the two of them. Sinéad held herself so still, Heather began bracing for impact.

“Twins?” Sinéad’s voice was flat. She took a slow breath, her chest rising and falling in a steady wave. “What else?”

The smile dropped from Cian’s face. “All right, sweet sister. Answer me this, and I’ll tell you everything you want to know. Have you been a little blue lately? A little melancholy and wistful?”

Something had changed in Cian’s voice. It became deeper somehow, lingering. His words floated around Heather and drew her in, even though it had nothing to do with her.

“I’d guess it’s a familiar sensation,” he continued. “Something you know intimately, something you’ve felt deep down in your bones for as long as you remember. You haven’t noticed it in a while, haven’t allowed yourself to, but in the last few weeks it pushed its way to the surface. You miss your family. You miss your home; but wait, that doesn’t make sense, does it?” He leaned back, drumming his fingers slowly on the table. “Isn’t it odd to miss what you’ve never had?”

About The Author ~

Ellen Jane Phillips is an Australian indie author of wlw romance. She loves writing about LGBTQ women who experience complex lives, emotions, needs, and desires.

You can find her writing under two pen names: Ellen Jane, and E.J. Phillips. If you like light, cosy wlw romance suffused with magic and mystery, Ellen Jane is the pen name for you. If you prefer something a little heavier, and you like your wlw romance tinged with magic and tender angst, E.J. Phillips is the one you want. When she isn't writing, you can find her walking the dogs, playing D&D, or bemoaning the number of days since she last ate nachos.
