Book Description

February 1, 2002
Marcus Van Buren's ghostly family has been a thorn in his backside since the day he was born. Now he's paying someone to get rid of them. Inexperienced ghostbuster Daisy Malone should be ecstatic the ultra-wealthy tabloid darling, Marcus Van Buren, is paying her big bucks to conduct a sham of an investigation. The windfall will bail her family out of financial ruin. According to Marcus, all she has to do is tell the truth and sign a document swearing the old family home, Laguna Vista, is 100% ghost-free. Unfortunately, Daisy knows otherwise.

About the Author

Think Thelma and Louise. Think Laverne and Shirley. Somewhere in between you’ll find Cyndi and Beth. A lively combination of adventure and comedy. Chemistry and magic. Grit and fun.

Cyndi and Beth attended their first New Jersey Romance Writers meeting on the same day. Finding they had much in common—the pure love of storytelling, escapades, and anything funny, not to mention never having the same hair color for more than three months—they became instant friends and critique partners. Later, both won Honorable Mentions for their solo projects in NJRW’s ‘Put Your Heart In A Book’ contest.

Intrigued by their similar styles and opposing strengths, Cyndi and Beth made an enthusiastic decision to write as a team. Hence, CB Scott was born. Their writing worlds meshed into an anything-goes playground and they eagerly invite readers to come along for the ride.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Really Great Read, March 1, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Scandalous Spirits (Paperback)
Rarely have I enjoyed a debut book as much as I did Scandalous Spirits. Fast moving and flat-out funny, the action draws you in at the same time that the characters make you laugh out loud. Daisy and Marcus are to die-for. Daisy's family members are as charming as they are quirky and Marcus's right-hand-man Rufus is so sexy, you'll be as thrilled as I am that he's getting his own book.

I rarely read paranormals, but I heard so much positive buzz about this book that I decided to give it a shot. I'm so glad I did. The Van Buren ghosts are a trio you'll never forget. The author does a great job with their 1920s lingo and style. You'll find yourself falling for them as much as you do for the modern day hero and heroine.

If Scandalous Spirits is any indication, CB Scott is an author with amazing fresh, lively storytelling talent. Lucky for us that more books are on their way!

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb paranormal romance, April 8, 2002
This review is from: Scandalous Spirits (Paperback)
In Atlantic City, the three Van Buren siblings (Jonas, Isadore, and James) died when inebriated and they drove off the road into the nearby water. For the last seventy years they have haunted the family home at Laguna Vista, but the last decade has been boring, as no one has resided in the house. The ghosts know they are somewhat at fault with their pranks that have kept their descendants away.

One of their relatives Marcus Van Buren hires novice ghostbuster Daisy Malone to certify that Laguna Vista is ghost free so he can get rid of this mausoleum. Her family needs the money, but ethics and knowing spirits live there provide Daisy with a moral dilemma. As three worried apparitions play matchmaker, Daisy and Marcus fall in love, but does this couple have a ghost of a chance to make a permanent relationship last when they disagree about the existence of Jonas, Isadore, and James?

The key to what makes SCANDALOUS SPIRITS so delightful a novel that paranormal romance fans will want to read is the strong cast. The lead couple and the ghostly support players seem real so that the audience believes in the magic of love and the authenticity of sprightly spirits. Surprisingly Jonas faces an angst-laden decision that will endear him even more to readers and showcase the abilities of C.B. Scott to convert the surreal into feeling so real.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun ghost story, November 8, 2002
By 
Moe811 (New York USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scandalous Spirits (Paperback)
Daisy Malone has been hired by Marcus Van Buren to certify the family estate free of ghosts. A prospective buyer is phobic about them even though he intends to demolish the old mansion. Daisy needs the money and is willing to certify the house, even though she knows that it is indeed haunted. The only problem is the ghosts, and they have no intention of either hiding or leaving!

I really enjoyed this fast moving ghost romance. The characters are very well drawn and vivid, especially the ghosts. Daisy's family is alot of fun and the plot fast moving and interesting.
