Oh, I liked Cory! I liked him a lot! He has a sense of humour - black - that certainly works in his situation! Naming pets Plague, Pestilence and Rabid is brilliant! :) And while the story is HFN there is just the tiniest flicker of hope - yes, Cory, HOPE - for a HEA!
Ghost stories are not normally my thing, but this one sounded interesting, so I decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did! Maybe it was the perspective of Jonathan, a paranormal investigator, who approaches the idea of a haunted lunatic asylum relatively rationally. The owner pushing for him to find ghosts was pretty funny - and rather realistic considering the man was trying to find a way to make money running ghost tours.

Jonathan isn't impressed by any of that, He looks at the bare show more facts, and I liked that about him. When he finds a real ghost, one with a sense of humor and a mischievous streak, he is extremely surprised. The more he explores this ghost and its abilities, the more he likes him.

Ernie has been a lonely ghost for 85 years - no wonder he is a little bored. Jonathan's company is just what Ernie needs, and he is quite impressive in his achievements. Scary - not so much, which was just fine with me.

If you like "friendly ghosts", if you enjoy reading about paranormal investigators and their adventures, and if you're looking for a short, fun ghost story with a happy ending, you will probably like this one,

For the most part I like the story. David and Vaughn play off each other well.
Totally my problem, I know but the ultimate expression of love in this book is a tad over the top and the wedding at the end unnecessary, but whatever.
This was another one of those books where I really wasn't sure what I should expect. I suppose you never truly know when you start a new book by an author you haven't read before, but I also found the blurb a little ambiguous... interesting, appealing and definitely caught my interest, but still ambigous lol. But that was also part of the appeal. And I won't say a lot more, because I feel this is something best found out by reading the book.

I will add that this was a very comfortable read. show more Interesting characters and a good storyline. And I'll also add that I started the next one as soon as I finished this, lol. show less
