A Ghost for Christmas (Destiny Bay Cozy Mysteries Book 1)

Be careful what you wish for
Mele Keahi wasn't looking for excitement when she came to Destiny Bay. She'd just lost her man, her job and her self esteem, and she needed comfort. Instead, she found herself involved in a murder, sparring with a suspicious detective and coming face to face with a ghost from her Hawaiian childhood. Not what she'd bargained for--but then--sometimes you just have to deal with what the cat dragged in.

At 31,500 words, 178 paperback pages, A Ghost for Christmas is the first book of the series.
