What's a Ghoul to Do? by Victoria Laurie

Book 1 in the
Ghost Hunter Mysteries

Introduces
M.J. and her partner Gilley who run a business in which M.J. communicates with ghosts and sends them on their way. M.J. and Gilley have known each other since college and their friendship helped them develop a business together.

They get their first big client, the wealthy, de-lish Dr. Steven Sable, where are at his family's lodge is the ghost of his dead grandfather. His grandfather allegedly jumped to his death from the roof-although Sable says it was foul play. When they arrive at the lodge M.J. contacts three ghosts but none of them seem to want to talk to her. In the meantime they have a bigger problem. Steven's father, who had never acknowledged him, is also in town and it is obvious he wants something and will do anything to get it. Steven and Laurie intend to stop him but they need the help of the ghosts to do it.

Lots of sexual tension between M.J. and Sable but enjoyed the antics of Gilley, who is gay, loves computers and is seriously afraid of ghosts. This was a fun read and I will try another to see if I want to read others by the author, who is known for her supernatural fiction.
