When a movie shoot ends in murder, a caffeine fix might be the star’s only hope. Skye O’Malley’s grandmother always told her she inherited the Sight. But other than an occasional message from a blob of tea leaves or a vague dream, Skye doesn’t think she’s anything special, since she can’t even predict which of her coffee-shop customers will order hard-core black or fancy frou-frou with extra foam. The only instinct she can rely on is the jangly feeling that something is about to happen. Like when her best friend (and only employee) Deanne tells her that a film crew is coming to their hometown of Las Vegas, New Mexico. The lead is Hollywood’s hottest action-movie star, Max Sullivan, who just happens to be Skye’s former "boy next door"…and her lifelong, unrequited crush. Just having him around unbalances Skye's carefully curated existence. But when she starts having disturbing dreams involving Max and a prop gun, she can’t ignore them. Especially when the film’s notoriously unpleasant director turns up dead, and the evidence points to one prime suspect. Max. Max needs a miracle, not a not-quite witch. But he’s placing all his trust in Skye — and her murky tea leaves — to help him find the real culprit before the actual murderer gets away clean.

Las Vegas, New Mexico, isn’t exactly sin city, but that doesn’t keep this quiet little town from seeing its share of unexpected murders! And while Skye O’Malley, owner of the Levitation Latte coffee shop, might be doing her best to lead a quiet life, she finds herself called to bring her talent reading tea leaves — and having a prophetic dream here and there — to solve those crimes. Lattes and Levitation is a lighthearted small town mystery series with an overarching romance subplot carries throughout the books. This boxed set includes the first three books in the Lattes and Levitation paranormal cozy series: Caffeine Before Curses Skye’s witch powers are nothing special. When a film crew comes to town, though, those powers are put to the test when the film’s star — her unrequited crush — is accused of murder. Max needs a miracle, but if Skye’s tea leaves are too murky, a killer could get away clean. Muffins After Magic When Skye and Max discover the dead body of the town mayor in the harvest festival’s corn maze, Skye pushes her magical boundaries with the help of YouTube how-to spellcasting videos. Now not only does she have a highly annoyed talking cat, a murderer has taken notice…. Pastries and Prophecies Skye had hoped February would involve surprises like Valentine chocolates, not the mother who abandoned her showing up out of the blue to teach her about the family magic. But when her mother is accused of murder, Skye’s efforts to prove her innocence could make her the next to die.
