How to Seduce a Ghost

Ghostwriter Lee Bartholomew lives in a crumbling old town house in Notting Hill, London - alone. Her boyfriend has been badgering her for years to marry him or let him move in. But over thirty and counting, Lee is set in her ways, likes her space, and is terrified of letting any man get too close. Then an arsonist sets fire to a nearby house, and the woman who lives there is killed - and Lee convinces herself that she's next.

Ghostwriter Lee Bartholomew heads to New York to be the maid of honor in her mother's wedding/ commitment ceremony (even though she's still married to Lee's father) and to interview for the job of ghostwriting an autobiography by aging rock legend Shotgun Marriott. But her time in the States doesn't go quite as she planned. First she learns she lost the ghostwriting job to a much younger, ambitious hustler named Bettina. Then the body of a man in a wedding dress washes up right after Lee's mom is married in a beautiful oceanside ceremony-and he turns out to be none other than Shotgun Marriott's estranged son! When Bettina is also murdered, Lee finds herself stepping into the dead woman's ghosting shoes-before the killer strikes again.

Held To Ransom (Lee Bartholomew Ghost Series)

No one to trust, nowhere to turn...  Newly married and excited about honeymooning near her family in the Hamptons, ghostwriter Lee Bartholomew isn't prepared for the disasters that happen when she arrives on US soil. Not only has her husband had to stay behind in London, but a botched ransom attempt on her stepbrother's adopted son brings horror into her family's midst. When a body is found close by, followed by a further kidnapping of a little boy, Lee begins to suspect a link between the crimes. It seems almost everyone in her circle could be involved - and could even pose a very real threat to her life.
