Customer Reviews

Got to be honest here

I’ve never been more excited to pick up a book than I was with this one but unfortunately, I ended up feeling disappointed. The storyline and overall premise were solid, and there were moments that had real potential. But I just didn’t feel the emotion I was hoping for. There’s so much more I could say, but I don’t want to spoil anything for those who still plan to read it. At the end of the day, I just wasn’t feeling it and that really sucks, because I wanted to love this book. Instead of being an emotional journey or an exciting adventure, it felt more like a chore to get through. It’s always hard when a book you’ve been looking forward to doesn’t live up to expectations, but that was the case here.

Always looking forward to coffee and a story. These are wonderful stories!

When I first purchased it I did not know what to expect and let me tell you, what a beautiful set of stories. I'm kind of ignoring my other books for the moment and I kind of feel bad for them. However, it's Justified as this is really fun reading and it's emotional as well. Just pick it up and start and you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful.

Very sweet and detailed. All the ups and downs are highlighted perfectly. How to find our way thru loss and life when there are rigid rules and a coffee sipping ghost. I will definitely be reading the next books in the series
