The bespectacled psychic sleuth Gilda Joyce returns for another paranormal adventure!
Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator * Book 5
Written by Jennifer Allison
This the 5th book in the Gilda Joyce series. Gilda is a young psychic whose father died and mother is now engaged to Eugene from St. Augustine, Florida. When she visits St. Augustine for the wedding, she finds ghosts and a mystery surrounding Eugene’s ex-fiancee. I usually don’t like ghost books but this had a lot of twists , turns, and a delightful main character that kept my attention.

From the Publisher
When Gilda Joyce’s mother announces her engagement to a man from St. Augustine, Florida, Gilda is appalled. She hasn’t even given him the “Joyce Family Application” yet! But as the wedding preparations get under way, Gilda realizes she has much bigger concerns. Why does her soon-to-be stepdad keep calling Mrs. Joyce by his ex-wife’s name? And why is Mrs. Joyce acting like she’s possessed?
With only a few short days before her mother says “I do,” Gilda knows this much for sure: it’s going to take every ounce of her sleuthing skill and psychic savvy to solve this one!
Another series to add to my list.
