Sloane Reid has never believed in ghosts, even though she made a career out of playing a ghost slayer on film. When the studio tells her at twenty-nine she's too old to be a scream queen, Sloane retreats to her aunt's remote Florida cabin to figure out what comes next.

A Ghost in the Curve by Violet Howe

Romantic mystery. 1st book in the Cedar Creek mystery series.
Actress Sloane Reid escapes to the small town of Cedar Creek. She is broke and not sure what the next step in her career will be. Trying to talk to her agent on a cell phone without a good connection brings her down to the dock at the lake where a ghost interrupts her phone call. The ghost in the lake wants Sloane to find her family.
Forgetting the alarm code at her aunt’s cabin brings Deputy Tristan to the scene where things go south quickly.
Can Sloane find the family and resurrect her career at the same time?

I did not like the heroine to start with. At all.
She won’t answer the straightforward questions from the deputy. Then gets mad at him for doing his job. She has no job, no money and yet she ignores the request from her agent for an address to send her a script to review and instead goes home to drink.
Now both situations had other things going on. When the deputy is asking questions, the house alarm is going off.

40% through. Still do not like the heroine. She wants the deputy to trust her, yet she won’t explain about the ghost. She yells at him that she doesn’t need protection, yet her house was trashed and she’s being threatened. And she still won’t tell him even though he is practically begging her to share. To trust. To help him understand and do his job.

Finally at 50% she admits she is at fault for a lot of the problems. Ok, slightly redeeming herself.

In the end, the book was complicated and compelling. The characters are consistent throughout and I still wanted to yell at Sloane for her independent stance.
I loved Tristen for his strong moral character, and his ability to believe in Sloane and her ghost. ( )
