Holly gets involved in a mystery when the elderly lady down the street finds two young men at her door with papers that claim they now own her home.
The home that she never put up for sale.
It seems that there's a scam running and Mrs. Shepherd is not the first victim of.
Holly and her sisters all have inherited powers that are passed down through the family.
This book deals with Holly and the trouble making cat Milo.
It seems Milo is not an ordinary cat either.
He's tuned into all 4 of the sisters.
This is a fun story with developed characters that are there to support each other, and a good bit of humor.

Enjoyable whodunnit. Holly has never really got over her abandonment at the alter by Max and when he asks for help to clear a mutual friends name accused of murder, she feels she has no choice. Holly has begun to use her special senses to begin to understand things going on around her. As things become more deadly, and her life is in danger, her side kick milo ( the cat) is only to keen to help. The addition of a possible new love interest makes a lovely storyline.

What a wonderful book!
This is Holly’s story, one of 4 sisters. But also very much Milo the cat’s story! He has his own little subchapters. And that was so cool! An exciting story! A warm feel overall, and in Milo, a fun element. And I also felt curiosity, what kind of abilities do the sisters have? Heightened senses for sure! But I think there’s more to them! The easy camaraderie and familiarity between the sisters leapt off the page and made me feel a part of it. The mystery started out with a swindle, which led to murder. With twists and turns, this was an intriguing mystery! The suspense was built up nicely and the plot multi-layered. Excellent book!

Excellent mystery!!!
I enjoyed this book very much. The characters were well written, as was the climate, mood & surroundings. The mystery was interesting and well thought out. It was intriguing to read how Holly's mind worked as she & the others investigated this mystery. I also enjoyed hearing Milo's thoughts and comments, which were occasionally shared in the story. I am looking forward to the next book in the series!!!

cute and interesting story with occasional narration by Milo, the cat. Holly becomes involved when men show up at her neighbor’s house claiming to have purchased it, but the homeowner knows nothing about it. Fun to watch how Holly works out what is going on and then tries to bring about a solution. There’s a death or two, some shady characters and an intriguing plot! I received a free copy and write this review voluntarily.

Mystery and Intrigue
Can old transgressions by someone we were once very close to be forgiven? Is it possible to let bygones be bygones and not just move on but help the transgressor out? How often are we faced with such dilemmas and how do we handle them? Food for thought. A very insightful story!

Is the Next Book Out Yet?
When I started this e-book this I didn't realize I would spent every free moment I had read the story. I read the book in one day and looked for more. The story line held my interest while I loved the interaction of the characters. Having Milo as one of main characters added to the interest. I can' wait for the rest of the series.

Loved the premise of ethereal connections between characters, plus the mysteries to solve.
I want to read more about some of the characters; they have a realism and some umption-gumption that made me really like them.
Absolutely loved Milo.

Blend of mystery and romance
Plus a mild dose of paranormal. Very likeable characters. The only flaw I found was several instances of typographic errors or use of the wrong words.
