AMY BRIGGS

Amy Briggs is a full-time author, editor, and all-around story addict with a passion for romance, mystery, and the occasional murder (fictional only, she swears). A former firefighter and EMT from New Jersey, Amy grew up next to a military base—an experience that continues to inspire the grit and heart behind many of her stories.

With dozens of romance titles under her belt, Amy’s dive into cozy mystery was born from her love of puzzles, small-town charm, and the satisfying thrill of solving a whodunnit. Her books are known for blending suspense, swoon-worthy moments, and characters who feel like friends (or possibly suspects).

Now based in Texas, Amy shares her home with more cats than she can count and two dogs who run the household. When she’s not writing or editing, you’ll find her on the mats as a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, teaching women’s self-defense, running an MMA gym with her brother, or plotting her next twisty mystery or super hot sports romance over a strong cup of coffee.

She loves connecting with readers—come say hello on Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok.


 

Relic in the Rue

Book 2 in the Bourbon Street Shadows

A relic that rewrites truth.
An existential threat.
And a love that might not be real at all.


Bastien Durand, once an angel and now the most relentless supernatural investigator in New Orleans, thought the last crisis was behind him. But when a cursed grimoire surfaces at Rousseau Auction House—and a shadowy informant threatens the woman he loves—he’s dragged into a new game with stakes that are anything but routine.

The grimoire was bait. The real prize is an artifact known only in whispers—the Shadowglass Mirror, a relic said to reflect a soul’s truest nature . . . and the ability to bend it to someone else’s will.

The one orchestrating this? Gideon Virelli—a manipulative scholar who knows far too much about Bastien and Delphine’s connection, and her hidden power. Gideon doesn’t just want the relic—he wants Bastien to question everything he spent centuries protecting, including the tether that binds him to Delphine, the choices that built their love, and the very nature of the magic they were never meant to share.

To protect Delphine, Bastien must walk the knife’s edge between duty and doubt.
Because some mirrors don’t just show you who you are—
They show you the lie you’ve been living all along.

Welcome to Salem

When a latte turns lethal, clearing her name means catching a killer.

Rowan Clarke thought running a bookshop in Salem would mean quiet nights surrounded by stories—until a local dies after drinking a latte from her café, poisoned with hemlock. Suddenly, Rowan finds herself the prime suspect in a murder investigation.

Determined to clear her name, Rowan leans on the Salem Book Club of witches—and her own sharpened instincts—to unravel a tangle of secrets lurking behind the town’s charming façade. But every clue pulls her deeper into danger…and closer to the detective whose wary eye lingers on her for more than one reason.

The Salem Book Club Mysteries begin here—with poison, peril, and just a dash of romance.
