Hayley Mysteries: The Missing Jewels by Hayley LeBlanc

This is a quick and fun read and a nice follow up to the first book in the series. 
Haley and her friends (and Amelia) are back at it, recording episodes for Sadie Solves It. There is another mystery to solve though when a crown goes missing from the set. It's paste but it is an important part of this particular episode where a princess (played by an actor famous for being a superhero) is searching for her long-lost sister. But, unfortunately, it's not the only piece of jewelry to go missing. And all signs point to one of Hayley's favorite people, Vee, being the thief. It's up to the Silver Sleuthios (like Silver Studios) to solve the mystery so Vee can keep her job and get her daughter's surgery underway.

The Haunted Studio by Hayley LeBlanc

Hayley is starring in a TV show about a girl detective. Her two best friends on the show are her two best friends in real life, Cody and Aubrey. Her little sister on the show, Amelia,  is a diva in real life. Very dramatic; for example, she "faints" every time she forgets her lines. Their show moves to a new sound stage for their second season and one of the first things the trio learns is that there is a a ghost supposed to be haunting the set. Amelia quickly picks up the story and helps spreading rumors. Hayley has experienced some weird phenomena on the set herself. She doesn't want her show to end so she sets out to figure out what's going on. 
This was a fun start to a new mystery series.
