This recipe is from a book, Dead Without Remorse, in my Gilda Wright Mystery series. Gilda and her best friend, Marion, have an afternoon off work and choose to spend it in Marion’s backyard drinking Lemonade Margaritas and gossiping about people they know. Harmless until Kane Garrick shows up. If you’ve read the series, you’ll know he’s the hottie who showed up in Book 2, Dead Without Glory, and keeps trying to steal Gilda away from her boyfriend/boss Mick Williams.

My newest book is self-published under Escape With a Writer Publishing and will continue with two more books to come. AJ (Alison Jane) Cadell is a romance novelist who gets thrust into a family mystery when she accepts an opportunity to become a Writer-in-Residence on Vancouver Island one November. Mystery, suspense, and a bit of romance fill the pages and – since we’re talking recipes – Alison’s roommate, Emily, is a food blogger and cook. Since she will appear in more of Book 2, Diamond on the Beach, she’ll have a bigger role in sharing recipes and helping to promote that book since she ends up catering a party for 100 at the last minute!
Here's a sneak peek at one of Emily’s favorite recipes that she’ll be making for the party:
Ginger Bread Cider
8 cups
100% Apple Cider
¼ tsp ginger
¼ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup
sugar (or to taste)
dash of
cloves
Pour
the apple cider in a big pot.
Set
heat to medium-low and add sugar and spices.
Let simmer for 20 minutes and serve!
Hope you
enjoy the recipes and will check out Written in Stone! Watch for Diamond on the
Rocks coming next year!

BACK OF THE BOOK: Written in Stone by Diane Bator
“What happens at Grandma’s house, stays at
Grandma’s house.”
The problem is A. J. (Alison Jane) Cadell can’t remember Grandma or her house.
Dreaming of becoming a best-selling romance novelist,
Alison is invited to Cedar Grove, British Columbia to be a Writer-in-Residence
and reside at Thistlewood Manor for a month. When a resident of the manor is
found dead, Alison is drawn into a mystery involving a grandmother she doesn’t
remember, a father she thought was long dead, and a handsome firefighter who could
be the link to solving the mystery.
Will someone be after her next?

Thanks for being my guest on Recipes'n Reads. Looking forward to your next release in 2025!!!
The cider sounds good.
Sorry you are having to republish all those books but it's a great time to spruce them up!
Hi Diane, I agree the cider sounds good...I remember moving books to another publisher,just 2, I think. Of course sprucing them up was called for. Turned out to be a bigger project than I had planned. But actually glad to have the opportunity to "fix" them up. Thank you for stopping in.
