Also Known as Armchair Detective (AKA 1):
AKA Investigations #1

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on May 12, 2018 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

“Simply put, this book was one of the best reads I’ve had in a while. The phrase, ‘I couldn’t put it down’ has lost its significance due to over use, but I’ll say that I couldn’t wait to get into bed at night and get my Baeli fix before falling asleep.”   “This book was a blessing and a curse. -A blessing because it was so satisfying, but a curse because I was sad for it to end. So…I read it once, went back and read “Armchair Detective” again and then read it again. It is a sequel to “Armchair … Continue reading →

Run the Risk:
A Shamrock Cove romance

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on September 17, 2016 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 18, 2022

“…it’s the art of storytelling here that elevates this book above the others and the ability to toss in such a clever plot twist and still have the pieces fall into a cohesive story. Strong characters, witty dialogue, and an intriguing romance will keep you entertained throughout.” ~Amazon Review   On her 50th birthday, in the throes of her first hot flash, Sierra Kipling gets a phone call. The father she has shunned for 23 years has died, leaving her his bar, The Risk, along with a slew of bad feelings. Unhappy in her law career and life in general, … Continue reading →

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on December 14, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 18, 2023

  An Epic story continues… “fast-paced action with significant plot twists to keep you on the edge of your seat.” An epic story continues in Ravens, the second offering of the New Harbor Witches series. Sisters Dane and Penny have been honing their witchy powers in the months since the capture of their most dangerous and powerful nemesis. Now, enemies, new and old, conspire against the Balance Clan in a generations-old battle between good and evil. While some lives are lost, some will rise from the ashes. Rayna and Roman Murdock have ascended to the rank of High Witches and … Continue reading →

Also Known as Blue, Dark & Bright (AKA 6)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on July 16, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

    “It was hard to focus on what she said. The blood. It was just everywhere. All over her. All over the floor in the hallway….” EXCERPTS: It was hard to focus on what she said. The blood. It was just everywhere. All over her. All over the floor in the hallway. Chloe was talking. I heard other voices. Heard the Coke machine. The rifling of papers at the nurse’s station. A distant siren. My eyes on the blood. But Chloe. I couldn’t hear Chloe. “What? What?” I said, blinking my way back to her eyes. Chloe still clutched … Continue reading →

Pariahs & Prodigals (Rain Falls #3)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on July 16, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

        EXCERPT: Meeting My Maker & Other Kitchen Disasters The Krups KM-7000. It ground its own beans. It made perfectly calibrated coffee. It was, without question the best Christmas present she’d ever received. Bless Tegan. Bless her cute little blonde head full of wonderful gift ideas. India stood in front of the divine contraption, having added distilled water to the reservoir, loaded the organic cone filter, poured in the Costa Rica Peaberry beans, and listened to the machine create the freshly pulverized, aromatic grounds, begin the brewing cycle. Her nostrils flared with hedonistic satisfaction at the scent, … Continue reading →

Keepers:
New Harbor Witches #1

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on January 13, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 18, 2023

“An intelligent, well written story. In a refreshing departure from many ‘paranormal romances’, this book is truly well written. A combination of a page turning mystery combined with the melding of people that you want to cheer for. Treat yourself and read this book!” From an already accomplished writer, comes an engaging, sexy, and suspenseful new series about two sisters who thought they were ordinary, until they discovered they were not. Dane sparks runs a bistro and her best friend Trevor is the pseudo-chef who has tried every imaginable way to kill himself, but oddly, never succeeds. Gemma is a … Continue reading →

In Absentia (Rain Falls #2)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 29, 2014 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

        EXCERPT: The entire morning consisted of class instruction, a great deal of hand-out materials, and questions and answers. By the mid-day hour, things shifted to hands-on training, and that’s when the instructor brought out George, the resuscitation dummy. All class members were expected to demonstrate their understanding of mouth to mouth and chest compression techniques. She had read the materials, and had paid attention while the instructor showed them the proper procedure. Then she watched them all present their skills in varying degrees of precision. Mostly, demonstrating the lack thereof, she thought. Her hubris was challenged … Continue reading →

Quintessence

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 28, 2014 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

    EXCERPT A buzzing in my head brought me awake. I blinked at the glass a few inches over my face. Ceiling tiles, a florescent light fixture beyond the transparent barrier. I placed both palms on the canopy, feeling a little like I was in a coffin. Pushing on it, I heard another sound like airbrakes again, and the canopy folded back, as if I was emerging from the cockpit of an F16. I sat up. At the foot of the tube, sat Ethan Pritchard. He looked just like the photo on the back of his book. Scruffy salt … Continue reading →

Also Known as Syzygy (AKA 3):
AKA Investigations #3

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 28, 2014 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

“Kelli Jae Baeli proves herself not just a fine storyteller, but one who’s highly skilled at her craft, both artist and artisan. Syzygy is an entertaining and rewarding novel and a reading experience I strongly urge you not to miss.” “It would be easy for a writer to become so incensed by the prevalence in the real world of the kind of acts depicted fictionally here that her fury detracts from the story, even becomes an obsession. I’m impressed by Baeli’s even-handed treatment of these crimes in her narrative. Oh, the outrage is there, to be sure, but she never … Continue reading →

Also Known as DNA (AKA 2):
(AKA Investigations #2)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 28, 2014 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

“A treat to read. It was touching; suspenseful; joyful; and most of all, hilarious. Thank you, Kelli Jae Baeli, for such endearing entertainment.”   “…in true AKA Investigations style, events conspire to spiral out of control, testing the fortitude, depth of feeling and sheer courage of each of the characters. Nail-biting action and heart-stopping tension take the reader on a roller-coaster ride through the pages, piling one catastrophe on top of another and testing the characters to the limit. I wasn’t sure they’d all make it out alive in this one, but it sure had me turning the pages to … Continue reading →

Rain Falls (Rain Falls #1)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 27, 2014 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 18, 2023

“If I laugh any harder or more I am going to end up in the hospital. I feel like I can’t breath half the time.” “You can tell within a few pages when the writing is a cut above and it is here. The characters are well-developed, interesting, and very appealing. The dialogue is excellent and the building of the relationship feels realistic not contrived.” India Bell is looking for a regular writing gig to supplement her royalties. She ends up with two assignments – one, to interview up-and-coming lesbian romance writer Tegan Lowry, and the other? To win a … Continue reading →

Also Known as Rising & Falling (AKA 4):
(AKA Investigations #4)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on February 21, 2014 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 20, 2022

In a  unique departure from the conventions of most serial fiction, this novel depicts the events of the previous book, Also Known as Syzygy, from the point of view of  the women of The AKA Investigations team. -Lesbian Literati “I found the characters fun and very likeable. The storyline held my interest. Their backstory made me download the previous books to find out how they met and got to where they are in this book. I like Baeli’s style and feel for keeping the story exciting while making the characters into real people I’d like to know. “ Jobeth O’Brien … Continue reading →

Baggage

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on February 20, 2014 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 20, 2022

During Hurricane Katrina, Patriarch Dominic Fontaine meets his freakish demise—the rubble of his “hurricane-proof” mansion all around him—and no one suspects that a vengeful woman came to kill him. Real Estate Agent, Sienna Bachman, learns that karma can come in two flavors, but fears that although she has, ’til now, been an ethical human being, she may taste only one. The dark, handsome artist, Jerrin Beaudreaux, Dominic Fontaine’s estranged son, must deal with the specter of his father’s death, loathing him more and more as his past betrayal is compounded by still more family secrets. Established agoraphobe, Cherise Fontaine, never … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"I don't understand everything I read, precisely because I don't read only what I understand."

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)
