Breaking free from past mistakes! Wow!
We all make mistakes, and sometimes those mistake hurt others. Sometimes we know what we've done and other times we don't.
In this story, Joanne was living with knowing she was a brat and selfish young adult, but because of recent things that have happened in her life she's changed.
However, she doubts others see her as worth anything good, because of all the bad things she did when she was younger.
Will she continue to have to battle those feelings or will someone finally see her and believe in her?
I enjoyed this book. I actually had to run out and buy it after I finished the other four books in this series. If you've not read the first four books, you might want to go get them because there is so most to all these characters.
Now I'm just going to have to wait for Lydia's story in book six.
The author, Trisha Grace was new to me as I stated this series, but now I think I'll have to go out and find more of her books. She writes with the right amount of mystery and suspense to keep the story moving. I really didn't want to put the books down. This has been fun!

Ghost of the Past series
One of the best series I have read. Each book has a story of its own. Adventure, danger, compassion and family each one looking out for the other. And the icing one top was the incorporation of the presence of God as many come to see the importance of a true faith in the saving presence of Jesus forgiveness and the presence of the guidance of the Holy Spirit as a guide and comforter in their lives just as His presence does for those who put the faith and trust in God. Thank you for your insight and sharing your faith with we readers.

This book is so awesome I couldn’t put it down. Although it wasn’t as action pack compared to the other books on this series, The story was very heart warming. I could feel every emotion, pain and fear of The main character. And of course, the gang was so lovable I hope they really exist in real life. Looking for more books to read from you, Trisha! God bless 😊🙏🏼👆🏻

Awesome
Once again, Mrs. Grace has done an excellent job and I admit this one I didnt quite see coming! Reading this series, you will laugh, you will have tears but rest assured there is a very happy ending. No hardcore sexual scenes, no foul language...did you know you could enjoy syories without them? Fresh inspirational stories you can learn from, never preachy!

Loved the story
I really enjoyed this story. Joanne needed her own story and she finally got it. Joanne has grown up and matured so much!
It is so easy to let things fester when we think we know the truth. I was glad to see her and Lucas work out his past hurts.
Of course, there was murder and mystery and intrigue with a large helping of God!

WOW another good book in my favorite series. This one is about spoiled Joanne who has become a grownup and is glad to be part of a loving family. Think it will be a boring romance? Think again. I didn't find this murder mystery boring. I loved it to the end. Did I mention there is also humor? We need a little humor when bad things are happening. So glad I received this ARC copy.

Since reading the first book in this series, I've been keen to find out what happened to Joanne. Trisha has not disappointed, with a gripping plot, strong characters, and in this book, a lovely link between this series and the Hollywood series. I'm completely hooked on her books, and grab every moment to read them inbetween despite the craziness of twin toddlers. Keep writing, Trisha!!!

Wow! This was such a great book! Trisha definitely did not disappoint!
It was soo great seeing how Joanne had grown up and had been finally accepted in the group. Aside from the multiple times I wondered why she did not just leave and go home, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
I feel sorry for Lydia, who is now the only outcast in the group. I can’t wait to read her story!

The first few pages were repetition of the previous book and I thought was boring. I almost didn't want to continue until I reach the pages where the story became interesting and so many twists. this gave me a second thought that mistakes can be fixed and can be forgiven. I love the ending that Joanne and Lucas finally were together.

Another great book by Trisha Grace! She does a terrific job in bringing in the information from past books so the reader can keep up with the background scenes as they happen throughout the book. One book left in the series and I can hardly wait to read it!

Review of this book
I loved all the books and how each character found Jesus. I especially liked this last book because besides Lydia I disliked Joannes character. But she matured and accepted Jesus and turned out to be one of my favorites.

outstanding
This series is amazing and this book continues to prove it. The mystery plot in this book has you turning pages. Joanne and her class have a reunion planned but it goes nothing as expected. People dying, threats being made, missing people whatever will happen?

There's a bit of unintentional incorrect grammar that distracted me when reading this. It's a decent book, but some of it is almost like a soap opera.
