About this ebook

Celeste Jones always dreamed of becoming a gym owner. So, when the opportunity arises to buy Six-Packs for peanuts, she’s thrilled. The previous owner claims the place is haunted, but that doesn’t bother Celeste one bit—she doesn’t believe in ghosts. Hell-ooo! What normal person does? With all her experience, she’ll revive floundering Six-Packs!

Unfortunately, Celeste soon discovers that the gym IS haunted by a feisty ghost named Lennie. Lennie used to own the building that houses Six-Packs. Lennie approaches Celeste and tells her he must solve five crimes before he can enter the next world to atone for being a terrible person in life (for one, he was a slum lord).

At first, Celeste ignores Lennie’s badgering ways. But then one of the gym members suffers a mysterious death—and only Lennie seems to know who’s behind it. Celeste has no choice but to help Lennie solve his first crime or it’s over for Six-Packs, leaving not only Celeste broke, but her employees without a job.

NOTE: Haunted Hardbodies is a humorous cozy murder mystery for people who like to laugh. If you're looking for a traditional, serious mystery, this is not it:)

I was kind of leary about reading this books as it's not my typical. I LOVED it ! Celeste buys a gym,finds and friends a ghost,murder and dead body in a closet, and finds a boyfriend. Will read the other books in this series. Great author. Give it a try, and you won't be disappointed

I did not like the book at all . I know reading is away of escaping . But you should have some realism . YOU WOULD CALL THE POLICE. I think the writer needs a different career. If I could have gave her ZERO STARS I would have.

"Haunted Hardbodies" was a thrill a minute story of a dead trainer, the new gym owner, her sister and the resident ghost there. I was so twisty that I guesed the wrong killer all the way through.
