About this audiobook
Bailey Ruth Raeburn's latest mission is to guide the happy-go-lucky spirit of a deceased young man named Jimmy to the next life. But Jimmy is determined to watch over his still-living girlfriend, Megan, whom he wants to be happy even without him-which is easier said than done.
As if being haunted by her late boyfriend wasn't enough, Megan is dealing with an arrogant, manipulative senior partner who threatens to fire Megan's vulnerable secretary if Megan accepts a partnership at another law firm. She's in an impossible bind.
Since Jimmy refuses to move on while Megan is being blackmailed, Bailey Ruth agrees to help him. But after the partner turns up dead and Megan is found at the crime scene, Bailey Ruth and Jimmy have to find a way to uncover a killer before the love of Jimmy's life is ordered to spend a lifetime behind bars...

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Bailey Ruth Raeburn, leaves her heavenly home to help a fellow “ghost,” a young man named Jimmy Taylor, who lives in Bailey Ruth’s hometown of Adelaide, Oklahoma. It seems Jimmy is unable to walk up the staircase to heaven while is earthly girlfriend is in trouble. Megan Wynn, a lawyer who works under a sad excuse for a man named Doug Graham, wants to leave the firm. But Graham uses Megan’s concern and affection for her secretary, who has a seriously ill daughter, to keep her there. When Graham is murdered and Megan discovers the body, suspicion falls on her for the murder. In fact, every piece of evidence points to her and to no one else. If it weren’t for Bailey Ruth’s relationship with the Adelaide Police Chief, Megan would have been thrown into jail. As it is, Bailey Ruth and Jimmy have to use every ounce of their ingenuity to ferret out the real killer. This is a sweet series and Bailey Ruth is a great heroine. I’ve been reading Carolyn Hart’s books for years and I find that her “Death on Demand” series is much better written. In those books, the author does a great job of painting pictures of her main characters up front so readers get a feel for them early. Not so in this series, where characters are dropped in with very little description. This makes for a less than satisfying read IMHO. It’s the strength of Bailey Ruth’s as a main character that makes me stay with these stories much longer than I might have if another author were writing them.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Ghost Times Two by Carolyn Hart is the seventh book in A Bailey Ruth Ghost series. Bailey Ruth Raeburn receives a telegram from Wiggins to report for duty. Bailey Ruth is excited to have a new assignment. There is a ghost on Earth who refuses to ascend to Heaven in Adelaide, Oklahoma (Bailey Ruth’s hometown). Bailey Ruth is being sent to Earth as an emissary (Wiggins word) to convince the spirit to enter Heaven. James “Jimmy” Taylor has not moved on because of Megan Wynn. Megan is the love of Jimmy’s life, and Jimmy does not wish to leave her. Megan, though, is ready to move on with her life, but she cannot as long as she keeps hearing Jimmy (she can hear him but cannot see him). Bailey Ruth has to convince him to leave Megan and move on. Unfortunately, Megan has gotten herself into a little bit of a pickle. Her boss is murdered and Megan is found at the scene with blood on her hands (someone set her up). Now Bailey Ruth needs to solve to murder and get Jimmy to Heaven. Join Bailey Ruth on her latest adventure in Ghost Times Two.I found Ghosts Times Two to be highly entertaining. I love the antics of Bailey Ruth. This mystery is harder to solve. It is one that plays out (though you can take a stab at solving it, and then wait to see if you are right). Ghost Times Two can be read as a stand-alone novel. The author brings the reader up-to-date on Bailey Ruth (how she died and became an emissary as well as information about her family and some past antics). I give Ghost Times Two 4.25 out of 5 stars. I do think we get to hear a little too much about Bailey Ruth’s various fashions. She changes clothes quite often (she does have a good fashion sense though). I enjoyed Ghost Times Two, and I eagerly look forward to reading about Bailey Ruth's next adventure. I received a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
