Publisher's Summary
Little girls are vanishing from Deadwood, South Dakota. Fearing her daughter might be next, single mom Violet Parker is desperate to find the monster behind the abductions.
With her savings dwindling and just three weeks left to sell her first house or lose her realtor job, Violet is ecstatic when a handsome jeweler hires her to sell his century-old Victorian masterpiece - until she sees the dilapidated dwelling. Now if she could just convince her only buyer to stop rejecting vintage homes as if they're haunted.
Short on time and long on worry, Violet refuses to give up her dream of a fresh start in Deadwood. But with a malicious coworker trying to get her fired, a secret admirer sending her creepy messages, and a sexy stranger hiding skeletons in his closet, will Violet end up as one of Deadwood's dearly departed?

loved it!
The author did an exceptional job at masking the killer, I thought. It took only one line for me to figure out who it was though and it was so subtle I just instantly loved the story. I swayed a few times on the subplots though, which made it more fun and the characters are awesome! Cant wait to bite into book two.

Good listen
most of the story is ok but honestly the fatphobia and (self) body shaming is very ugh, and often enough that it gets old fast, especially when the protagonist starts drooling over men 🙄

It was just ok.
Slow moving story and not much of a mystery. I figured out who the killer was early on in the story. Also, I found the narrator sounded like A.I. For that reason I doubt I'll read the rest of the series.

So badly written
I rarely cringe and say eewww aloud. The book is so badly written. A terrible protagonist, shoddy plot, and the contrived romance. Even if it’s free, it’s not worth it. I pity the narrator. Although, she did a very good job.

Great start to a new series
I loved this book and am looking foward to reading more in the series. It has equal parts romance mystery and comedy. I actually laughed out loud at some portions. Highly recommend the book.

enjoyed
I really enjoyed this book. The story was funny and interesting and kept me listening. The one liners were very funny and had me laughing out loud. And just enough intrigue and spookiness. The narration was also very good.

It was good.
I love Caroline Shaffer. She did a good job bringing the various characters to life. The characters are believable well developed and they carry over into the next book. I love the story line.

I'm in deep like
I had never read anything by this author and I scrolled by this series in the plus catalog a lot of times, thinking it was dark. It's so not. I listened to them one after the other and will buy them when they drop off the list. It's a mix of cozy, supernatural and steamy sex all in one. I want my own Doc, and to dig a deep hole for Ray and Tiffany, then throw Susan on top. I love the characters and the narration. All in all a win, and I will be checking out more from Ann Charles.
