The Sweet Pea Mysteries are Kathryn Moon’s cozy paranormal offerings. The Baker’s Guide to Risky Rituals (2019) and The Knitter’s Guide to Banishing Boyfriends (2021) combine craft-based magic with light mystery and romance. The titles set the tone – these are warmer, more playful stories than her monster romances or omegaverse work.
The Baker’s Guide to Risky Rituals features a baker whose magic is tied to her baking, and a ritual gone wrong pulls her into a mystery. The Knitter’s Guide to Banishing Boyfriends shifts to a knitter with her own magical craft and a different kind of trouble. Both books keep the stakes low and the humor high, with romance woven through the mystery plots.
Moon’s broader catalog includes much darker and more explicit work, so the Sweet Pea Mysteries occupy a unique spot in her lineup. Readers who enjoy cozy fantasy with a paranormal edge but prefer lighter content will find these two books a good fit.
