Gone With the Ghost (Murder by design, book 1) BY erin mccarthy
Date of Publication: March 28, 2017
Bailey Burke has had a rough six months—it's not easy thinking your romantic overtures toward your best friend caused him to kill himself. Except that's exactly what happened. Ryan is very much dead, having shot himself with his own police-issued gun. Guilt and grief shouldn't cause hallucinations though, but six months after Ryan went into the ground, Bailey is freaking out and swearing his ghost is standing in her kitchen. Which he is…Ryan claims he didn't commit suicide, but was murdered, and he needs Bailey to help him find his killer so he can earn his ticket out of purgatory. Which contrary to national opinion is not their hometown of Cleveland. Ryan's counting on a stairway to heaven, as opposed to wings, since that might be a little unmanly for a cop, even a dead one.
An expert in home design, with her own staging business, Bailey can tell you where to place a couch to improve flow and comfort, but solving a crime? Not her area of expertise. But with help from Ryan's former partner, Marner, she is unraveling the mystery of what happened to Ryan that day… and unwittingly putting herself in grave danger.

Review:
4 stars
When picking up Gone with the Ghost by Erin McCarthy, I was anticipating a light, cute read, and this book did not disappoint. It was a quick and entertaining read with characters that you couldn't help but love.
Another thing that I was expecting was a lot of romance, which there wasn't. There was just a touch of added romance, and I thought it went perfectly with the story. I really love how the relationship played out in the story.
The plot-line and the characters were great. The plot kept me hooked from beginning to end, and the characters were relatable and lovable. There was also some much needed humor in this story, in my opinion.
I really enjoyed Gone with the Ghost, and I would highly recommend it.
