Publisher Description
“The perfect romance or beach read, with a difference: its enthusiasm and beautiful descriptions offer an unexpected attention to the complexity of not just evolving love, but evolving psyches. It's a delightful recommendation for romance readers looking for a touch more complexity from their romance reads.”
--Midwest Book Review (For Now and Forever)
THE GHOSTLY GROUNDS: VENGEANCE AND DINNER is Book #4 in a charming new cozy mystery series by bestselling author Sophie Love, author of The Inn at Sunset Harbor series, a #1 Bestseller with over 200 five-star reviews!
Marie Fortune, 39, a successful dog groomer in Boston, leaves the stressful life behind and heads to a small town in coastal Maine to create a new life. She remains intent on renovating the old, historic house her great-aunt left her and giving it a new life as a B&B. Yet there was one thing she couldn’t plan for: the house is haunted. Two things, actually: her great-aunt also left her a dog—and he is far from a typical dog.
When Marie is invited to exorcise a supposedly haunted house, she encounters a twist she never could have anticipated. But before she can wrap her mind around the situation, a man turns up dead—forcing her to solve the case and to clear her own name.
A page-turning cozy, packed with mystery, love, hauntings, travel, pets and food—anchored around a small town and a B&B in need of renovation that will capture your heart—THE GHOSTLY GROUNDS is an un-putdownable cozy series that will keep you turning pages (and laughing out loud) late into the night.
“The romance is there, but not overdosed. Kudos to the author for this amazing start of a series that promises to be very entertaining.”

Customer Reviews
Good story
I loved the book, however the type-o’s got me frustrated.
Repetitive theme and typos
I enjoyed these books, and found each to be a fast and fun read. However, I didn’t care for the predictable and unrealistic “clear my name” theme to the plots (found in both of the author’s series that I’ve read). Weirdly, I also found the excessive typos to be distracting.
More beginnings and endings
Brendan seems to have some exciting opportunities. Does he want to share choices or let her know about a fair accompli and offer her a choice that isn’t much of a choice?
Friend Robbie might be a chance at a different sort of choice and friendship. Good friends are rare and Robbie seems to be one.
Marie is at a bit of a crossroads in terms of her ghostly gifts. A favor requested by a business neighbor gets rapidly complicated, and Marie learns more about small town social networking online and offline - not all of it affirming
It is refreshing to read of strong friendships that also challenge and support Marie, including ghostly Aunt June, even as others pass out of her life
Action packed, humorous and insightful
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
