About Beate Boeker


I love books with touches of humor and mischief. It doesn't matter if they're romances or mysteries or biographies - as long as they make me chuckle, count me in.

 Avalon Books in New York has already published three of my sweet romance novels. "A Little Bit of Passion" and "Take My Place" were both nominated for The Golden Quill Contest 2011/2012, and on top of that, "A Little Bit of Passion" was also a finalist in the National Readers' Choice Award 2011.

 If you feel like a short trip abroad, try out my romance with a hint of mystery "A New LIfe" - it's set in Florence, Italy. Or choose "Chic in France" for a whiff of the mediterranean coast with some chaos thrown in. And if you like a combination of baking and reading, the series "A Culinary Catastrophe" is right for you.

Ghost of a Threat by Beth Dolgner - Book 1 of the Betty Boo, Ghost Hunter Series

Take a trip through beautiful Savannah, Georgia in today's featured book Ghost of a Threat by Beth Dolgner. It has a WHOPPING 4.9 star rating with 25 reviews. Check out this haunting and steamy Paranormal Romance.

A Brief Synopsis of Ghost of a Threat:

Normal young women go on dates on Saturday nights. Paranormal investigator Betty "Boo" Boorman goes on ghost hunts in Savannah, Georgia, America's most haunted city. She's more comfortable around ghosts than guys, anyway.

A violent haunting forces Betty to team up with her rival ghost hunter, the arrogant Carter Lansford. When the violence is turned toward her, though, Betty knows she needs additional expertise. She enlists the help of a handsome stranger, who introduces himself simply as Maxwell, Demon.

Betty's ghost hunting is cut short when she's threatened and, finally, attacked. Either someone wants her to stay away from an investigation, or a demon hunter is targeting her. As Betty begins to fall for Maxwell's mysterious charm, she starts to wonder if her life--and her soul--are worth the risk.
