Candy Burke
Hey there! I’m Candy Burke, a storyteller who pours romance, adventure, and a sprinkle of magic into my stories. When I’m not writing, I’m curled up with a good book, sipping coffee, or getting crafty with my latest DIY project. Life’s sweetest moments are spent by the coast with my real-life hero and our four-legged “kids,” dreaming up new characters or dancing in the kitchen to our favorite songs. My stories celebrate heart-pounding connections and happy endings, inspired by love and everyday joy. Stick around to explore my world of fiction !

Wayne DePriestVerified A fine collection It's nice to discover that Darwin influences writers...at least the concept of Natural Selection does. I mean, after reading these 42 shorts, you'll understand why these particular victims were natural selections. Dionne WashingtonVerified Great stories I loved this! The characters are great! Actually, the story was so good, I intend to read it again like most of those I really loved. Amazon CustomerVerified Hilarious! This was so much fun! Super short stories about how to clean up the gene pool by bumping off 'evil' people in interesting and unusual ways. We all have those dark little places inside us that wishes we could 'knock off' crazy people at times. This is a humorous and non-lethal way to indulge those fantasies. LHWritesVerified An inventive and enjoyable read! This was a fun book full of intriguing stories with a unique idea as its basis. I initially purchased it for the MJ Sydney effort, which was one of the more inventive tales, but overall, from start to finish, this was an enjoyable and sometimes disturbing, read. Barry DowdeswellVerified Dark, short and challenging Candace and Paul have drawn together another anthology of short stories, all around the theme of removing "unnecessary" elements of the gene-pool. The murder stories are short and wickedly funny. Then, just when you think you have found another comedy one, it turns out to be dark and sinister. Read this one with the lights on... PiggliesVerified Interesting Short Stories I enjoyed the short stories, but I was expecting the stories to be in a more similar style to the Darwin Awards books. If you enjoy fictional short stories about murder, then you'll probably enjoy this collection. The stories are very short, so it is a perfect book to read on breaks at work. LeilaVerified Great anthology... I bought this book today and found it to be very entertaining and an enjoyable read. I definitely recommend this. Eager ReaderVerified Brilliant collaboration of murder shorts. This is the second anthology I had the honor of co-hosting with the incredibly funny, Paul R. De Lancey. Congratulations to the many authors who contributed their talent to The Darwin Murders.
