I liked the first book in the series as well, but I liked the continuation of Mel's story with this one.I like reading about the way Mel is trying to close herself off to men because she was hurt by her ex-husband. I think she is a little unsure of herself when it comes to men after being thrown for a loop by Caleb's dad. However, she is obviously attractive and could probably have any man she wanted if she wanted one which is evident by people hitting on her and trying to cook her dinner.It is good for her to be an independent woman who doesn't want or need a man though. I think this shows strong character to not be needy or seeing every man as a possible mate. It shows she has been hurt and is guarded though, and I hope she comes out of that a little more in the next book. She does have an intense attraction to Graham though, and he seems to have the same. I am glad that he broke up with that party planner at the end of the book. I think that Mel has had enough time licking her wounds over Caleb's dad. I think she and Graham deserve to give what they may have a chance. It has been a long time coming for the two of them!I understand this is not purely a romance novel or strictly about Mel's love-life though, so I will touch on the ghostly aspect of the book a little bit as well. Let me tell you what!!! This part of the story had me fully engrossed from the first quarter of the book right up until the end. Ghosts, cats, cranky old man, crazy old cat lady & crazy old cat lady's daughter all really brought a lot to this story. I like how it kept me actively engaged and thinking and guessing right up until the end with this. I will admit at first though, when I finished the book and all of the details were sorted out, I was slightly disappointed at how quickly the pieces all fell into place.I could have read the resolution of the book for another 50-100 pages and would have been pleased. It seemed to keep building the whole way and just all came together at once with a slamming halt. I really liked the reader getting to think through all of the possibilities of what was going on right along with Mel - but all of sudden it turned on a time when it was discovered that Katenka was at Mel's house. Then it just nicely wrapped everything up in a bow and was over. Now that I have let it all settle into my mind over a little bit of time though, I am not sure what else could have been said to make it any better though. It did all fit into place well and left me only wondering when it came to the Mel-Graham situation - yet this looks very promising!I enjoyed the ghostly activity in this book being different for Mel than in the previous book. This shows that every situation is different and needs to be handled differently.All in all, I really enjoyed the book. It had me interested, kept me wanting to read more to find out what happened, and kept me guessing. It was an enjoyable way to pass the time. If a book does this and entertains me it definitely deserves 5 stars in my book.Can't wait for the next book in this series, and I love Juliet Blackwell's Witchcraft Series too! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great paranormal cozy *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2022* Juliet Blackwell writes great character ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Suspenseful & Original *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2012* Dead Bolt has an interesting premise, engaging back story, quirky but believable characters & is written w/a detailed, somewhat wry point of view. I liked this book's plot more than the first of this series even though the ghosts were much less likable. I found the Russian character more complex than I'd originally thought and the other new characters were believable. Yes, I've met that wealthy, driven technology guy, the weird cat lady who surprises you, and her ensemble of family & friends are blessedly believable.The ghosts in this book are not particularly nice, but they grabbed my attention and kept their own secrets. Their pull on Melanie and the others was chilling and I found myself actually worrying about everyone involved. The frustrations Mel encounters on the job, with romance, clients, subcontractors & the mystery itself was rendered realistic by Blackwell's rich descriptions, deft turn of phrase & keen awareness of her cast of characters, San Francisco and Oakland, the people who inhabit those cities & renovation of historic homes. I found myself immersed in her world, enthused and learning about history, construction & architecture while also being entertained. Having known women in construction, Mel's quirks actually make her more believable as do her challenges in running multiple jobs, dealing w/a male-dominated world in a matter of fact way & working to hone her new found ghost communicating talent. The ups & downs of her potential romance also rang true for me because responsibilities timing really do shape our romantic lives.I can honestly say that this series is staying w/me because now when I see or am in an old home, I view it differently than I did before I read these books. But lest you think that it's all about learning, remember it's also fun, spooky & entertaining.
