Cuddle Farm Mysteries Books in Order

The Cuddle Farm Mysteries move Paty Jager into cozy territory, but they still keep her interest in community, work, and people under stress. The setup centers on Andi Clark and the therapy animals she brings into the lives of people around Auburn, Oregon. That instantly gives the series a gentler surface, one built around comfort, routine, and small-town connection.

Then murder cuts through it.

The first book shows how the series works. A holiday event, a grieving child, a loyal dog, and a shocking death push Andi into asking questions when the town is already rattled. Her niece is a deputy, so there is a natural bridge between amateur sleuthing and the official investigation, but the appeal here is less about procedure and more about people, secrets, and the way everybody in a small town thinks they know one another until something terrible happens.

The animals are not gimmicks. They shape how Andi moves through the world and how others respond to her. If you like cozies with a warm setting, holiday atmosphere, and an animal-centered hook, this series starts on very inviting ground with Merry Merry Merry Murder.
