About this ebook
A New Man. More cupcakes. Another chance at life?
Can you still really get another shot at life? Or is that thought just a figment of one’s imagination?
Emmy has been through the toughest things these past couple of months. First was the death of her old friend, Annabeth Meyer, whom she saw die right in front of her eyes. And then there was the wedding at the resort which resorted to the death of Edward, the husband of Ruby, who was actually Daniel’s ex. And soon, Ruby died, too—and Emmy felt even worse than she ever did before. And then she and Daniel broke up—and things haven’t been the same since.
She felt scared. She didn’t know what to do with her life and she didn’t know if there was any chance for their businesses to come back on top. She feels like she has hit rock bottom but she has no idea if she could still get back up.
Three months later, she receives an invitation from Frank Albert Holt—a man she doesn’t even know. She wonders why she got invited to the party but decides to go eventually. Then, she realizes that Frank is actually a guy who could change her life—for better or for worse.
Meeting Frank would take Emmy into an adventure of the unknown. She would question herself more than she ever did before. She’ll re-assess her feelings, and check if the people in her life are supposed to be there—or if she should just take the plunge and try to change things the way she hasn’t tried before.
She’ll also have to deal with her nightmares—and understand what they’re trying to tell them before it gets too late.
Join Emmy in confronting her battles and making her own choices through The Sky Valley Mysteries Book 3: Mayhem at the Mansion--out now!

CHAPTER 1
A DARK DREAM
"I'm sorry for everything I've done. I swear, if I was in the right state of mind and if I was thinking clearly, I would never have thought of doing those things. But I'm just this weak person who let other people feed on her weaknesses. I know it wasn’t right but I couldn't help it.
I was the one who sent myself all of those things. I sent myself those crazy notes and I cut up that dress.
I was also the one who killed my own husband. And I guess it's also the reason why my mind cracked and made me realize that I was being insane and that what I was doing was wrong.
Everything happened because someone asked me to do them. It’s someone who is mad at your family, Emmy. And I know that sounds like a lame excuse, but I can assure you that it's not. Well, maybe it is and for that, I want to say I'm sorry.
I want to tell you everything, but I can't tell you in this letter.
But I want you to know that someone's trying to hurt you. Someone is behind this.
I'll tell you when we talk. I just have to see the police first."
Emmy woke up feeling like her heart was just going to get out of her chest. She was sweating and once again, she felt a surge of all these conflicting feelings.
It's been three months since Ruby died. Ruby was Emmy's client who apparently turned out to be Daniel's ex-girlfriend. She got married at Beaches and Coffee, the branch of Emmy's family's coffee shop at the Sky Valley Resort. A lot of things happened before and after the wedding, though.
At first, Ruby pretended to be someone named Scarlet. Then, she fooled everyone by making them think that someone was threatening her and that someone was sending her nasty messages. She even cut up the first wedding dress that Emmy made for her which led Emmy to make another one.
Then, Ruby's husband Edward died. It was ruled out as an accident but Emmy was questioned because it happened at the resort.
Things were really crazy. And then there was that letter.
For a couple of times now, Emmy had dreamt about it. Well, for her, those dreams were nightmares because they reminded her of how crazy things were and how she failed yet again.
Grace, Ruby's sister, gave her the letter after Ruby died. It hasn’t left her mind since.
And you know what else didn't leave her mind? It’s the fact that she and Daniel broke up.
She couldn't blame him, really. She broke up with him, after all. But of course, it still hurt.
She broke up with Daniel because she felt like it was all too much already. Audrina was accused of having something to do with Annabeth's death and Ruby, who was Daniel's ex, also died just three months ago. Emmy felt like it was all too much and that she didn't know what to do anymore. She never had any idea of what to do.
Sure, she loved Daniel. In fact, she still loves him, but the thing is that she doesn’t if their relationship was actually worth anything. All it brought was pain, sadness and confusion. She found the circumstances were very frustrating.
She got up from bed and fixed herself up before making her way downstairs where the smell of apples and pecan greeted her.
She went to the dining room and found her father preparing some dishes. There was a platter of pie in the middle of the table.
Oh, hey!
Troy said. I tried making this apple and pecan pie recipe I found online.
He smiled, It's crazy what you find on the internet these days!
He laughed.
Awww,
Emmy said. It actually smells good, dad.
She then took a knife from one of the plates and cut a piece of pie which she placed on her plate. She dug in with a fork and tasted the soft bit of apples and the crunchiness of pecans in her mouth. The pie was delicious. There was no denying that. It tastes great, too.
She smiled and gave her father a peck on the
