    This was a very sweet story. I have a feeling there’s if were alot of stories during that time. I wish That their child could have met his father or at least the father could’ve seen him.

    In Dog Gone Ghost Angie Fox delivers another delightful short story in her Southern Ghost Hunters series. Verity Long is back with her precious pet skunk, Lucy, and long deceased gangster side-kick, Frankie, to help a family heal and begin to move forward. Tackling a sensitive subject, Fox brings a calming sense of closure to senseless things that forever changed a heartbroken couple. This sweet tale offers lovely possibilities in the face of unspeakable loss. Verity and company are becoming old friends, and Fox never disappoints to give her readers a well written, thought provoking read that's entertaining, at the same time. It's also nice that we get more character history snippets, bringing us a little farther into Verity's world. Having dealt with a devastating loss quite recently, because of the well crafted story, the human aspect, or the way the story deals with profound loss, this may be my favorite of this series. It's a perfect bite-sized read when you need an hour of 'me' time.

    Verity is back when her sister coerces her into helping a friend. Julie’s store has always been haunted but now the southern spirits are causing costly damage to the wares. Of course, there is a ghost in distress and a solution that only Verity can provide. A lovelorn soldier and a lost engagement ring are the basis for a heartfelt love story. This little short story packs a lovely punch. I craved more from Frankie, the gangster ghost, but he made himself felt with his snark and old-time chivalry.
  • Fun easy beach read. (Or any time)

    I just finished reading “A Ghostly Gift (Southern Ghost Hunter Mysteries)” and I enjoyed it immensely. This is a novella that is after her first Southern Ghost Hunter book. This book is an easy to read and fun book about Verity Long and her ghostly friend Frankie. In the previous book Verity is able to see and interact with ghosts. This time Verity has to help a long dead ghost with finding his true love that he left behind when he went to fight in WWII. With Frankie’s help she is able to see the ghosts in the Antique store. While she is investigating, she discovers that she can see ghosts in the cemetery without his help. This is a must read.
  • Short and endearing

    This book is a novella that is a nice diversionary tale that allows further insight into Verity and Frankie as characters. They set off on a new adventure to solve a mystery haunting an antique store. This a cute tale about true love and compassion for others. Overall I enjoyed the story and I look forward to future adventures.
  • Wonderful short story in a great series!

    We were introduced to Verity and Frankie in Southern Spirits and this next novella didn't disappoint! Verity is a good person who goes with her new ghost friend to help solve a mystery and rid a troublesome ghost for a friend. The ending is sweet and another winner for Fox. If you haven't met Verity, Frankie, Lucy, and Ellis, you need to read Southern Spirits and then A Ghostly Gift. Both are great reads and you'll be glad you did!

    A Ghostly a Gift by Angie Fox This simple little ghost hunting story had me crying at one point. Happiness and warm fuzzies. Wow. A short story done really well. Verity has become a ghost hunter, mostly by accident and against her better judgement. But she needs to earn money so a ghost hunter she has become with the help of a gangster ghost that has become tied to her ancestral home. "I wasn't even their type and I felt like the last Pork chop on the plate" And humor is always a plus for me. I received a copy of this book from the author.
