Here’s the set-up for Karen Cantwell’s and LB Gschwandtner’s Foxy’s Tale, just 99 Cents on Kindle :
A comic, chick lit tale wherein former beauty queen Foxy Anders has fallen on hard times and rents an apartment to mysterious, bumbling Myron Standlish who’s arrived in the city looking for a long lost trunk containing who knows what.
When Foxy’s teenage daughter, Amanda hooks up with Nick, a cute guy at school, while getting cooking lessons from Foxy’s new assistant Knot, they’re all in for some romance with a dash of suspense and a sprinkle of supernatural. And laughs … as an added bonus.
From the reviewers:
“This is a cute book which has a little bit of everything – romance for adults as well as young adults, comedy, and a touch of paranormal. The book has characters you will really come to care about. I know I did. An old Yiddish vampire? Too funny. You might not want to read this one in public or people will wonder why you are laughing out loud. This is the first book of a series “The Reluctant Vampire” and I’m already looking forward to the next one.” – Socrates’ Book Review Blog
“Full of snappy characters, laughs, and mystery, peppered with lively details of Washington, DC., and brimming with enough shoe shopping to satisfy any fashionista. This new joint effort from Karen Cantwell and L B Gschwandtner is guaranteed to please! Can’t wait for the next installment in this lively new series!” – Misha Crews, Author of Her Secret Bodyguard
“Foxy’s Tale is irresistible fun – full of lively characters with a knack for trouble, laugh-out-loud dialogue, and story twists that will keep you reading deep into the night.” – Kim Wright Wiley, Author of Love in Mid Air
… a delightful read. I look forward to the next reluctant vampire book. – L.C. Andrews
Wonderful read, downloaded to my kindle but started reading on my iphone and couldnt put it down. The eyes hurt now but was fun anyways. Thoroughly enjoyed the characters. – L. Allen
Such a great, fun, exciting read! – Kim Wring Wiley

I have been writing plays and short stories for many years, some of which were published in various college literary magazines. More recently, my short story “The Recollections of Rosabelle Raines,” was published in the mystery anthology Chesapeake Crimes: They Had it Comin’ available at Amazon.com.
My first novel, TAKE THE MONKEYS AND RUN, is a comedy-mystery, inspired, to some degree by a true monkey sighting in my own neighborhood. Because I love to laugh as well as make other people laugh, I have great fun writing the characters Barbara Marr, her friends and her adversaries. When I set out to write this book, I knew I wanted to write something that readers would say, “Now that was FUN.” I HOPE I have achieved that goal. And if I did, please feel free to drop me a line at and let me know! I love to hear from readers. (especially if they LIKE the book!)
FOXY’S TALE was co-written with my friend LB Gschwandtner. This is the first in a planned chick-lit series. And yes, I’m working on a second Barbara Marr novel, CITIZEN INSANE. You can find out more about these upcoming books at my website, www.KarenCantwell.com.
