This series is very enjoyable and the home design ideas are a gem. Avery and Derek buy a new house to renovate together. The home was the scene of a brutal murder/suicide 20 years before and the house just might be haunted!

Avery has an overactive imagination sometimes - she loves to think out scenarios for the murder and it's a little annoying. But I can overlook that as the story is very entertaining. A great book to curl up and get cozy with. :O)

The first book in this series was very good, and the second just carries on from there. Lots of twists and turns in this cozy mystery. Who thought rehabing a house where murder had taken place 16 years ago would lead to so much trouble?

This is a cute little mystery with some interesting twists. The characters are a bit "cardboard cut-outey" but the book was amusing nonetheless.

Very enjoyable cozy series. Interesting discussion of home repair. Derek and Avery are good lead characters, fun good chemistry. Mysteries are good but you can figure them out by the end. Looking forward to the third book.

I just started reading this series and want to read every book in the series. The main characters Derek and Avery have a wonderful relationship that is refreshing. Nothing seems too far fetched as some writers tend to make their characters a little unbelievable. I was wondering who did it almost to the end. Great read. DA in Houston

Avery, Derek and all the rest..."a haunted house" compete with a bloody history and a body in the cellar ........makes for a great read..........even if you are able to figure out "who done it".

Good suspense story. If you pay attention, the clues are there to find the murderer. Nice play of characters and story line. I look forward to the next book in the series.
