A Ghost From the Shadows by Elizabeth Egan-Cox

Shanon Delaney comes to McArdle Bungalow to do publicity for a dinner theater but finds so much more! Her former flame Alex Blackthorne and a ghost! If that isn't enough, the ghost is a pirate! Set in Catalina, this engrossing tale involves solving a mystery of a pirate's treasure, a little romance, and some interesting interior design fun. This is the second book in the Shannon Delaney series (there are 4).  I enjoyed the first as well (A Ghost of A Chance). I just downloaded the 4th for my Kindle and will review it when I have read it.  I enjoy the author's style of writing and her sense of humor, while not going too far off track when involving a little supernatural element. A great clean read.

Breach of Trust by DiAnn Mills

In this thriller/suspence novel, Paige Rogers lost everything when her entire CIA team was betrayed by their leader.  They were all killed in their last mission, but she escaped and started a new life in hiding.  Now a librarian in a small town, she finds out the man who betrayed her team is running for Governor of her state.  He comes to find her and silence her. I found this a really compelling page turner! It is a Christian based novel but it doesn't cram it down your throat. It is a fascinating clean read.
