Book Description
Celeste Jones has a lot on her plate---not only is she the new owner of Six-Packs, a floundering gym, but she's also promised her new pal Lennie the ghost to help him solve crimes so he can move on. Lennie used to be a bad, bad guy while alive, and he's not setting foot in Heaven unless he redeems himself. So far, the duo has solved one of the five crimes Lennie needs to solve in order to be forgiven. And neither of them being professional investigators, it sure wasn't easy. Still, with the assistance of Celeste's Herbalife-obsessed kid sister Becky, they somehow found the person who killed one of Six-Packs' members with the Jones sisters' own lives intact. This time around, Celeste and Lennie had better find out who killed the busybody front desk guy real soon--because, right now, Becky is the prime suspect. NOTE: SPOOKY HARDBODIES is a stand-alone cozy murder mystery for people who like to laugh.

Book Description
Celeste Jones always dreamed of becoming a gym owner. So, when the opportunity arises to buy Six-Packs for peanuts, she’s thrilled. The previous owner claims the place is haunted, but that doesn’t bother Celeste one bit—she doesn’t believe in ghosts. Hell-ooo! What normal person does? With all her experience, she’ll revive floundering Six-Packs! Unfortunately, Celeste soon discovers that the gym IS haunted by a feisty ghost named Lennie. Lennie used to own the building that houses Six-Packs. Lennie approaches Celeste and tells her he must solve five crimes before he can enter the next world to atone for being a terrible person in life (for one, he was a slum lord). At first, Celeste ignores Lennie’s badgering ways. But then one of the gym members suffers a mysterious death—and only Lennie seems to know who’s behind it. Celeste has no choice but to help Lennie solve his first crime or it’s over for Six-Packs, leaving not only Celeste broke, but her employees without a job. NOTE: Haunted Hardbodies is a humorous cozy murder mystery for people who like to laugh. If you're looking for a traditional, serious mystery, this is not it:) FREE, FIRST-IN-SERIES, FREEBIE, GHOST MYSTERY, AMATEUR SLEUTH, FEMALE SLEUTH
