The horse knows the way
To carry the sleigh
Through the tear and bloodstained snow...

Joslyn Faust passed away in 1940, after losing all but one of her children to death. The Weatherby Mills history books paint her as a kind, generous woman, willing to lend a hand to any one of her neighbors. Weatherby Mills lore, however, blames her ghost for the deaths of at least four men.

That’s where Delilah Isles and Milly West come in.

Working for the New England Spirit Society, the women have seen many violent and cruel attacks by human spirits and non-human entities. After all, the most violent and disturbing cases come to them. They know the myths about Joslyn Faust, so when the case comes their way they are both anxious to start investigating and uncertain whether or not it’s a case for N.E.S.S. But the first time they set foot on the Faust property that uncertainty is vanquished, because Joslyn Faust turns out to be a whole lot darker than they anticipated.

EXCERPT:
Delilah Isles was certain of two things: pork roast in the slow cooker was the best in cold weather, and the woman in her kitchen was dead.

The elderly woman, around seventy-five or eighty with a slim build, lifted the cover of the slow cooker, leaned slightly forward, and inhaled. Her gray hair was in a neat bun and she wore a long lemon-yellow sleeveless nightgown from the nineteen forties. The woman smiled as she inhaled again, closing her eyes.

Delilah hated to interrupt, but it was eleven thirty, and she was tired.

She could see, sense, and speak to the dead—amongst other abilities—but she never would have known this ghost was in her house if she had not been awake. The woman was quiet, calm. Benign.

Delilah cleared her throat, hoping not to startle the woman. The gray-haired lady motioned with her free hand but took her time looking back at Delilah, taking a last inhale and putting the cover back on the slow cooker. When their gazes finally met, the lady’s light blue eyes struck Delilah—they were much like her own.

“Hello there, dear,” the lady said. “Did I interrupt your sleep? I hope I haven’t…”

Trevor Greene is her student's bodyguard with the ability to shift and disappear. She thinks she saw him die protecting her; he thinks he can't ever share his secret with any human. Can these two put aside their past experiences and truly heal in each others' arms?

After fighting for two days with Google sites, I've decided to go with Weebly because of features and ease of use. Seriously, it's for everyone. I've built Google sites for work, so I have some experience, but Weebly isn't a greedy time leech.  

Currently prepping for NaNoWriMo so I can write prose. After using Alan Watts' 90-Day Novel to get to know my characters, I feel confident I'll complete the challenge of 50,000 words. I love the idea of writing roughly 1,700 words a day. Having a solid goal helps keep me on track. So I WILL do it!
