This whole grim reaper thing should
have come with a manual.
Or a diagram of some kind.

Charley Davidson is a part-time
private investigator and full-time grim reaper. Meaning, she sees dead people.
Really. And it's her job to convince them to "go into the light." But
when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (like
murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice.
Complicating matters are the
intensely hot dreams she's been having about an entity who has been following
her all her life...and it turns out he might not be dead after all. In fact, he
might be something else entirely. But what does he want with Charley? And why
can't she seem to resist him? And what does she have to lose by giving in?
With scorching-hot tension and
high-octane humor, First Grave on the Right is your signpost to
paranormal suspense of the highest order.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
FIRST GRAVE ON THE RIGHT is the
first book in the Charley Davidson series.
They do need to be read in the order of release.
A laugh-out-loud funny mystery
thriller with a healthy dose of romance courtesy of Reyes, I could not put it
down. There is so much I could say about
Reyes, but I don’t want to give too much away.
I leave it with he is smoking hot and I want to read more about him and
Charley together. Charley is smart,
sarcastic and scarily supernatural. Her
powers are intense and have made for a lonely life. Luckily, we are entering just when she
finally is realizing that she does have people she can trust with her
truths. The supporting cast – her dad,
uncle, evil stepmother, secretary/assistant, and many others – are well-developed
and are perfect placed to move the story along and add richness to the tale.
This is the first book I have read
from this author and I have already put the rest of this series on my “wish
list.”
Note: while I was given this book as a gifted copy,
my opinions are my own and are given freely.
