Diamonds are a Ghost’s Best Friend

Beechwood Harbor Ghost Mysteries, Book 5

De: Danielle Garrett

Narrado por: Amanda Ronconi

Going to the chapel and we’re gonna get...haunted?

I’ve got a ring on my finger and a date circled on the calendar, let the wedding planning begin!

As luck would have it, the little wooded chapel I’ve got my heart set on is plagued by the not-so-nice spirit of a former bride. She died on what was meant to be her wedding day and isn’t going to step aside to let anyone else take her place at the altar. She claims the chapel is cursed and points to her own murder as a sure sign, but I’m not convinced.

I’ll have to keep my new reaper powers in check and solve this case the old-fashioned way if Lucas and I have any shot at starting our happily-ever-after underneath the majestic pines.

My favourite series in this genre

I enjoy the humour and friendly banter between the characters, especially Flapjack the cat. The series is well written and well performed. I hope there are many more adventures for Scarlett et al.

good series!

this is a good book and a good series. I have listen to a lot of cozy mystery series and they all end up the same at the end, they had to get married. to me that sort of puts a damper on it, call me a cynic, just saying. but all in all a great series. loved the narrator.

HEA

Great ending to an amazing story. Everything wrapped up very well. Thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Highly recommended.

Is this the end?!

I thoroughly enjoyed the book and hope it is not the series finale. Love Flap Jack!!!

Matrimony and Murder

Now at volume 5 in this series this story continues with what fans have come to love. Lots of interplay between Scarlet, Lucas, and our favorite familiar ghost friends. I will say as someone who listens to all of Danielle Garrett's series this is my favorite and for a supernatural tale the most realistically depicted. The relationships and interactions between the living and dead feel very fleshed out (pun intended) and the audience sees clear development of Scarlet both in her self-awareness, her relationships, and in her powers. I also love the chemistry and partnership Scarlet has with her partner Lucas which is sorely lacking in the other Beechwood series. The two in this series seem well matched both risk takers and both with a sense of humor about the supernatural abilities and disruptions and chaos it can cause. I will say Scarlet goes even further in her risk taking and meddling than Holly does in the other series but somehow it comes off as less cringe worthy. As with the rest of the series you are guaranteed a happy ending and resolution. There is a sense of evolving without any annoying cliff hangers. For fans of a light supernatural mystery that focuses on relationships with a slight murder mystery in the background this is for you. The characters are fun, full, and there is playful humor throughout. Amanda Ronconi performs beautifully as always. A sure bet for fans of the series. This was not my favorite volume as it did feel more like a transition edition (the story felt secondary to moving the main character to a new life), it is still great.

ok

I like the book but the other ones were much better. But I am still looking forward to the next one.

Delightful and fun

I’ve loved listening to this series, the characters are consistent from one book to the next and their dynamics are fun spirited (no pun intended) my only refinement though would be to combine two books together due to the next short listening time. I don’t feel you get as much for your money with the short books.

More ghostly fun.

I do love this series and the narrator. I just wish the author would stop writing, circle back, circle around, over and over again. It becomes very annoying. Otherwise, I so enjoy these books.

Danielle Garrett and Narrator Ronconi are a perfect match!

The book is not written with, he said/she said, typical distracting verbiage, it flows like a story occurring in your mind.

The author and Amanda Ronconi who I always enjoy as an a narrator, are a match made in heaven. Keep up the great work.

Does Not Disappoint

I love Amanda Ronkoni (sp?) and the way she performs these books. This one had some pretty amusing moments and the storyline kept my attention for sure. Enjoyed it very much.
