About this book

Sabine LaVeche is running out of time and options. To survive a desperate threat against her life, she must track down a blood relative she never knew existed. When the eccentric and meddling ghost Helena Henry arrives with an offer of assistance, Sabine realizes just how dire her situation has become. Accepting help from a spirit is unconventional, but in the swampy, mysterious town of Mudbug, it might be her only path to salvation.

As Sabine digs into her own buried history, she enlists the help of private investigator Beau Villeneuve. Their professional partnership quickly sparks an undeniable, sizzling chemistry that complicates her already precarious existence. Navigating a budding romance while evading a killer is a dangerous game, especially when someone is determined to ensure that Sabine’s past remains permanently buried.

This addictive installment in the Ghost-in-Law series perfectly blends paranormal romance with small-town cozy mystery. Fans of urban fantasy will love the sharp humor, the ghostly interference of an unforgettable meddler, and the high-stakes tension that keeps the pages turning. If you are looking for a witty, supernatural page-turner where the stakes are life-or-death and the sparks fly as fast as the bullets, look no further than Mudbug.

I love when you find a book that you just don't want to put down, and when you do, you can't wait to get back to it. That's the best way to describe this Ghost-in-law series. This is the second book in the series, and so far each book is easily read as a stand alone story, but don't deny yourself the pure joy of reading the entire series. The writing is excellent, the characters are well developed and the plot is anything but predictable. Helena, the mother in law ghost, is hilarious, and will...
