this is the second series of the book. I keep hoping the lead character will get a backbone and more brains. I quit reading for a while and then this was all that was left.
I hate the sister and Mrs V. hate her boyfriend. would love to know about candlefield and to make her a stranger character. she let's people run all over her.. I couldn't handle being around a person in real life who is like this
the mysteries are fun and I figure then out but they aren't simple. I wish there was more about magic.
but it's a good book I am just not one for romantic stories and this isn't too bad but a good mystery

Worse book yet
Reviewed: 11-25-17
Ok I get she had a baby and that changed her well into a whiny pretentious Brat who is no longer her self but spoiled but done have to hear about the baby when breastfeeding every few pages? we get it. She had a kid and yes breastfeeding is hard and that would be reality based but do we have to hear about the baby constantly.
o have loved all of Me Harris books and the TV shows but this one disappointed me.

When Nina Linden is hired to landscape a private island off the New England coast, she sees it as her chance to rebuild her failing business after being cheated by her unscrupulous ex. She never expects that her new client, software mogul Deacon Whitney, would see more in her than just a talented gardener. Deacon has paid top dollar to the crews he’s hired to renovate the desolate Whitney estate - he had to, because the bumps, thumps, and unexplained sightings of ghostly figures in 19th-century dress are driving workers away faster than he can say “Boo.”

Good story about a girl, a haunted house, and the boy next door
Reviewed: 07-18-15
I really liked this story. I am a ghost hunter from KY and am really looking forward to seeing what kind of mess Alabama gets herself into.
The story was good but the narrator really bothered me for two reasons- she made Reef sound like he was a dumb hick and I could not connect with him because of it and second she mispronounced Louisville.
I love Rose Pressey stories
They are always so funny and relatable
I am going to start on the second book.
I think this one was really interesting and the things that happened to Alabama really kept you on your toes.

Maggie Thomas doesn't know the first thing about being a private eye. She quickly discovers that running her uncle's faltering Miami Beach P.I. agency is nothing like watching detective show reruns. Even the private eye app on her iPhone can't help. But Maggie's first case is surprisingly easy...or so she thinks until she stumbles upon a dead body. With whizzing bullets, car chases, and spandex-clad bodybuilders, Maggie wonders if she's in over her head.
