Kelly also writes for adults as Emmeline Duncan. The first novel in her Ground Rules series, Fresh Brewed Murder, came out in April 2021. The second novel in the series, Double Shot Death, will be published by Kensington Books in April 2022.
When not writing, Kelly spends her time hiking and seeking out new coffee shops. She also spends more time than she wants to admit trying to convince her rescued Great Pyrenees that she’s not a sheep who needs to be protected. But who can resist this face?
Her editorial staff also includes Arabella’s keen eye:
