Author Gina Holder

How many books have you written?

I have written eleven books since 2015. One historical missionary drama, a romantic suspense trilogy, two cozy mysteries, one suspense novella, three children’s books, and the first book in a new romantic suspense series releasing in June with Scrivenings Press.

What do you enjoy most about writing books?

I’ve been creating imaginary worlds and telling stories as far back as I can remember. My favorite part of writing books has to be creating something that entertains readers and inspires them in their walk with God. The greatest blessing I have ever received is a note from a reader sharing how God used my book to touch their heart and change their life.

What is your latest release?

My latest release is Home Baked Bribery, book 2 of my Addie Masters Mysteries. Home Baked Bribery is a cozy mystery set in a coastal town in Massachusetts and centered on a local baking competition where a guest celebrity judge dies suddenly of what appears to be anaphylactic shock. Full of lovable pets and quirky characters,

Are you a pantser or a plotter?

I am a 100% pantser. I have some general idea how I want a story to go—I’ve fleshed out my characters, and I see a few vital scenes in my head that I need to aim for, but otherwise, I just start typing and see what happens.

 

 

Home Baked Bribery by Gina Holder

Blurb: The annual Rockport bake sale and competition is underway. The stakes are higher than ever for the coveted Golden Whisk Award when a high-profile celebrity chef is brought in as a surprise guest judge.

The competition takes a deadly turn when the celebrity suffers an allergic reaction.

When Addie’s nemesis, Kennedy Graves is banned from the competition for using almond extract, Addie volunteers to prove Kennedy innocent. As Addie investigates the death, she learns each of the local bakers had a motive to dislike the celebrity. But did one of them kill him?

Meanwhile, hundred-year-old twins, Poppy and Marigold, keep Addie hopping, looking for their missing dogs.

Will Addie be able to uncover the truth behind the celebrity judge’s death, or will she become the next victim of the mysterious shenanigans going on in Rockport?
