Death Came To Dinner
Meet Aurora Cosme, a New Orleans resident and aura reader. After being hit by lightning and dying a few times she came back to life, changed. Aurora is light sensitive, she has the sight and she talks to ghosts. One happens to be her bestfriend Madame Laveau aka Lovie. Don’t ask how that friendship happened. She reads auras and tea-leaves in the parlor of her three story Victorian house in the 4th ward of New Orleans. But compared to the fact that she could be in the great beyond by now, Aurora counted herself as lucky. A young woman named Lenore Dash stepped into her parlor and aura was as bright as her personality. Her story was, she was about to die and in Aurora house mind you. In that white aura, she saw the outline of angel wings and then a dark entity took her, one from long ago. It was time to don one of her designer sunglasses and clear her name. There was one additional problem, FBI agent Andrew Garrett. The Boston born officer of the law didn’t believe in the things that went on in New Orleans or Aurora. The fact that Lovie didn’t like him and their growing attraction, well that was three problems, wasn’t it? Blast it! She’d find away to help the young woman even though her beautiful light was snuffed out and the other problems would have to solve themselves.

Page turner
Who needs sleep? You'd think I would know better than to open a book at two in the morning. I was just going to pull it up in my Kindle for the next day. Yeah right, a couple of hours later, the suns up, my eyes are burning, and I'm thoroughly satisfied.
Great characters, well-paced, intense action.

This book was our September/October 2020 Book of the Month selection. Read our full review on F-BOM.com: https://f-bom.com/2020/09/01/death-ca...
"Romance and action converge on Aurora when a young woman is found dead in her home. The FBI arrives, and with them Agent Andrew Garrett. The chemistry is immediate, but Aurora has misgivings. Can he accept her way of life as a medium and a disabled person?"
Aurora Cosme is a woman who takes no flack and I had a great time reading about her and the rich cast around her.

I love sassy and snarky characters, paranormal mishaps and fun, and romance, and this book definitely delivered those. This was a fun, fluffy read for me, and while I didn’t like the Insta-love vibes, it didn’t keep me from enjoying the book overall. Will definitely check out the rest of the series, especially for the worldbuilding.

Aurora
This book has paranormal, fantasy, mystery, romance and comedy wrapped all in one! I love how the author had Aurora grow in two different ways. Can’t wait for the next book in the series .

I loved this book. I need book 2 right now. This doesn't end on a cliffhanger, but you know to expect more. I just love the story of a Black witch in New Orleans that's not practicing black magic. I can't wait to see what book 2 brings.

DNF. I've had this book on my shelf for a year before I read it. I should have left it there. I don't like snarky and sassy character's who fail to react in a realistic way. Even more, I hate insta-loves and insta-sex (unless it's a 1 night stand). Both of these characters bothered me.

Aurora and Andy
A match made from magic? Who knows but, the story is funny and sexy as heaven! If you like witches and demon pups and one sexy FBI agent! This is your next book. The characters are funny and the setting in New Orleans made this story my new favorite.

This was definitely a different style of read than I am used to from this author. The story was well developed and included many twists and turns.

January 16, 2020Made it 15% of the way through. Felt like a mystery and not a fan of those. Friend recommended the author so I'll read something else by her.
