A clever con woman must convince a skeptical, sexy farmer of his property's resident real-life ghost if she's to save them all from a fate worse than death, in this delightful new novel from the author of Mrs. Nash's Ashes.

Fake spirit medium Gretchen Acorn is happy to help when her best (read: wealthiest) client hires her to investigate the unexplained phenomena preventing the sale of her bridge partner’s struggling goat farm. Gretchen may be a fraud, but she'd like to think she’s a beneficentone. So if "cleansing" the property will help a nice old man finally retire and put some much-needed cash in her pockets at the same time, who's she to say no?

Of course, it turns out said bridge partner isn't the kindly AARP member Gretchen imagined—Charlie Waybill is young, hot as hell, and extremely unconvinced that Gretchen can communicate with the dead. (Which, fair.) Except, to her surprise, Gretchen finds herself face-to-face with Everett: the very real, very chatty ghost 

that’s been wreaking havoc during every open house. And he wants her to help ensure Charlie avoids the same family curse that's had Everett haunting Gilded Creek since the 1920s.

Now, Gretchen has one month to convince Charlie he can’t sell the property. Unfortunately, hard work and honesty seem to be the way to win over the stubborn farmer—not exactly Gretchen's strengths. But trust isn’t the only thing growing between them, and the risk of losing Charlie to the spirit realm looms over Gretchen almost as annoyingly as Everett himself. To save the goat farm, its friendly phantom, and the man she's beginning to love, Gretchen will need to pull off the greatest con of her life: being fully, genuinely herself.

READ MY BOOK REVIEW

Happy Medium was an unexpected surprise for me! I knew going into it that this would be a paranormal romcom but what I normally read when it comes to paranormal is books on vampires or witches. This one, however, has a very pushy and fun ghost in it. Sure, I’ve read a few mystery books with ghosts in them and always enjoy them, but this one was a lot of fun to read about. Especially because we have a skeptic (him) and a fake medium who’s supposed to believe in this stuff (her).

If you like books with quirky and cute characters I think you should read this one. For me, it was so much more fun than I expected it to be, and I gobbled it up in one sitting. I can’t wait to read more from Sarah Adler in the future because her last two releases have been winners for me!
