Welcome to Mystic Mountain, where the pastries are bewitchingly good and the spirits never rest.When Amelia Frost inherits her grandmother’s historic inn, she also inherits the ability to see and speak with ghosts. But her tranquil mountain life is interrupted when Emily Cane, a celebrity crime writer haunted by dark spirits, checks in. Soon, the local bakery becomes the epicenter of terrifying hauntings, an ancient demon, and a decades-old murder mystery.

With the help of her fluffy ghost cat and a handful of spirited allies—like a wolf-shifter detective and her magical pastry-chef relatives—Amelia races to uncover the truth behind the demon’s rise, free the restless victims of an old curse, and protect the people she loves. Because in Mystic Mountain, the secret to saving the day might just be an enchanted recipe and a dash of witchcraft.

Bursting with spooky charm, cozy small-town vibes, and a dash of romance, this paranormal mystery serves up a heaping helping of magic, mischief, and heart. Come for the eerie ghost sightings and stay for the mouthwatering pastries—Mystic Mountain will enchant you from the very first page.

A Ghost Cat, Medium, Wolf Shifter, Witches, Curses

This cozy mystery has a lot of paranormal aspects. Poltergeists and Pastries is a quick read, a short novel. A writer comes to investigate a cold case in which three people died under mysterious circumstances. The main character is a medium with a ghost cat familiar. Some of her family are baker witches. The detective is a wolf shifter witch. The story has poltergeists and curses, too. There are sacred areas, too. And that doesn’t include all the paranormal aspects in this book, but I don’t want to give away anything.

I doubt I will remember much of this story after several months, since I didn’t find it particularly captivating, but it was a way to pass the time. I missed out on a little background since this was not the first book in the series, but I think the author filled in everything you would need to know to read this book on its own.

What an enjoyable series!

I am really enjoying reading along as Amelia is beginning to become more comfortable not only with her new powers and abilities, but with living in Mystic Mountain and being around all her relatives. In this story, she ends up taking on a really nasty poltergeist and helping her aunt out at the bakery, not to mention, helping a famous author as well. These stories all move along at a good clip, the characters are all engaging and I absolutely adore Charlotte! I can’t wait to see what Amelia ends up dealing with next in Mystic Mountain!

A really fun book full of magic and chaos. I enjoyed the characters, how they are supporting each other through challenges. And the storyline keeps you going through all ups and downs. So much fun to read.
I received a copy of this book from the author. I am leaving a voluntary and honest review.

Poltergeist are bad spirits are good

Mystic Mountain is turning into a very deep and detailed story of the characters and locations that are found in this town. Not your typical murder mystery however it is a lot more intense, and the characters are very well developed and the adventures continue.

Another great addition to the series. There are so many twists and turns that it made it impossible to put the book down. I had to keep reading! And the ending…whoa! Did not see it coming. I think my jaw hit the ground! I’m waiting anxiously for the next book.

Fun Read

Not sure how I found this book, but I enjoyed it. The characters worked well together. I will go back to book 1 and see how it all started.
