Ghost Mortem — ReGina Welling; Erin Lynn

You might not believe in ghosts, but sometimes they believe in you…

A whole life can change in a single day. When Everly Dupree's marriage implodes, moving back to her hometown of Mooselick River and staying with her parents for a little while seems like a good idea.
Except that, when Everly arrives unexpectedly, she learns her parents have taken in a boarder, and there's no room for her. Left with no other option, she ends up at the Bide-A-Way Motel. A week's stay should be enough time to find a place to live, get a job, and make a new start.
Who knew renting an apartment would eat most of her savings, or that jobs were scarcer than hen's teeth in the small towns of Maine?
Offered the chance to buy the town's haunted house for the back taxes, Everly signs on the dotted line and thinks things are looking up. But before she can move into her new place, the dead body of Hudson Montayne, her high-school sweetheart, turns up in the next motel room.
This is as bad as gets, she thinks, until Hudson's ghost comes haunting and refuses to leave until she helps find his killer. Will Everly solve the crime? Or will the end of her story read, and she lived Haunted Everly After?
