Romance with a paranormal mystery twist

Bree is a clairsentient, able to capture memories by toughing other people or objects. Sexton St Croix (nickname "Sex" for good reason...) is a luxory ocean liner owner desperate to get rid of the ghost, Daisy, who is haunting his ship. But the only way Daisy will leave is if Bree solves her murder. The mystery wasn't terribly difficult to figure out, but it was wonderful reading how Bree uses her visions of the past to come closer to both Sexton...and the murderer...... This was also a rather unusual romance in that there was an equally strong secondary story line occuring with Sexton's sister and her bodyguard. It was just as intertaining as the sparks flying between Bree and Sexton. I'll think you'll find this a fun read. I look forward to reading other books by this author.

flapper Daisy stole my heart

My cousin sent me a copy of this book and said I would love it. Have to admit she was right. What a super feel good book. I loved the breezy storyline, of a flapper ghost who would not move on because she's wrongly accused. The romance between Bree and Sexton was super, but nearly eclipse by his sister's super sexy sizzling secondary tale. Angell could have made a book out of Jax and Cecelia alone!! I am off to buy the first two Angell book and cannot to get them.

Wow, Wow, Wow!!!

This was an awesome, sexy, funny love story. Actually, its really 3 love stories rolled into one. The story centers around a ghost from a 1925 murder mystery who cannot rest until the truth about what happened to her and her lover onboard a cruise ship are uncovered. The modern day owner, Sexton St Croix (who, unbelievably, is nick named Sex...yeah, I know) hires a gaggle of psychics, one of whom is Bree Emery, to rid the ship of the troublesome ghost. Sex is a very dedicated playboy, who finds that special something in Bree that's been missing all his life. Bree is a very gifted psychic who finds herself caught up in the old mystery that plagues the ship. The third couple is St Croix sister, Cecilia, and his best friend, Jax, who has the most AMAZING sexual encounters (trying to fight an attraction but only causing it to blaze out of control). Theirs is probably the sweetest and steamiest love story I've read. I found myself unable to put this book down. It has tons of humor, hot sex, and a wonderful happy ending for everyone. You wont regret getting this book!

Sensational ... Kate Angell Shines!

Already known for her sizzling hot and highly original tales, Angell outdoes herself with Crazy For You. Pulling in her readers from the very first line, she weaves a web of brilliantly-spun magic that enchants and captivates. A romantic adventure at sea, this is the story of Sexton St. Croix, a man who has everything except the one woman who makes life meaningful and Bree Emery, an endearing and uniquely talented heroine whose special gift lets her unlock not only the mysteries of the past but also Sexton's well-guarded heart. Sexy, hilarious, and deeply touching, in Crazy For You, Angell skillfully tells not one but three beautiful romances, each one intrinsically interwoven with the others to create an incredibly satisfying reading experience. Filled with love, passion, dark secrets and the charm of the paranormal, this winner is fast-paced and brims with walk-off-the-page characters so real you'll feel you know them and so much lush and authentic tropical atmosphere you'll be persuaded to call a travel agent and book a cruise on Sexton's Majestic. You may also want to join me in encouraging the author to start up a sideline designing men's boxer shorts, an endeavor that would surely bring her a mint. But above all, it is Daisy, the 1920's flapper, who will steal your heart and have you rooting for her - even long after you've read the last line. As someone who rarely has time to read for pleasure, I must say that Crazy For You consumed me. Made me laugh out loud and cry. This is definitely one to put at the top of your must-read list! Go Daisy!

Outstanding!

Back in 1925 Randolph St. Croix, owner of the luxury liner "SS Magestic", jilted his fiancé for a poor flapper named Daisy Alton. History claimed Daisy killed Randolph, within her cabin, before committing suicide. The family heirloom, a six carat fire opal encircled by diamonds, that Randolph had recently presented to Daisy was never found. Nor was the gun Daisy supposedly used for her ghastly crime. Since that cruise, no one would book passage due to Daisy's ghost. The ship was put into dry dock ... for eighty years. Sexton St. Croix was putting the ship back out to sea. However, Daisy kept scaring off the guests and the crew. In an attempt to rid his haunted liner of Daisy, Sexton has billed a cruise as a five day psychic cruise. The only reputable clairsentient aboard is Bree Emery. Sexton settles Bree into Daisy's cabin, 7001, on the seventh floor. (It is the only part of the ship that no one could seem to renovate.) Sexton despises Daisy for killing his great-great uncle and refuses to believe the ghost is innocent. But Bree knows upon contact that Daisy did NOT kill Randolph. In order to set Daisy free, Bree must figure out who killed the star-crossed couple and then prove it. Hard to do when Bree gets visions from touching, because every time Sexton barely even touches her Bree is set aflame. ***** Author Kate Angell has created a romantic comedy with paranormal activity to liven up the scenes in this outstanding novel. Daisy is a ghost that you cannot help but love! There is a great sub plot romance with Sexton's sister and his bodyguard as well. Then there are all the other "psychics" on board to stir up some trouble. This gem is not to be missed! Outstanding! ***** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.
