A Spirited Delusion: A Paranormal Cozy Mystery
About this ebook
When a prickly matchmaker turns up dead, Quinn can’t ignore the eerie similarities to her latest bad dream.
Determined to uncover who wanted the town’s cupid out of commission, Quinn and Toni dive headfirst into a case that’s anything but straightforward.
The two best friends sign up for a matchmaking competition. The perks? Poolside drinks, a little undercover sleuthing, and maybe even a shot at romance, if Quinn can convince herself she’s ready for it.
But the small-town competition comes with big complications. Between rival matchmakers jockeying for clients, a prankster ghost stirring up trouble, and a so-called Prince Charming who’s anything but, Quinn’s investigation turns into a tangled web of lies, secrets, and suspicious alibis.
Now the gossip mill has its claws in her, Toni’s hiding something, and someone is determined to scare Quinn off the case.
Solving a murder is hard enough. Solving it while the universe keeps nudging her toward love? That might just be the biggest delusion of all.
Perfect for fans of midlife sleuths, ghostly mischief, and cozy small-town intrigue, A Spirited Delusion will keep you laughing, guessing, and cheering for Quinn until the last page.
