Karen Cantwell has a funny sense of humor, but not something that makes me laugh out loud. This book she wrote titled "Keep Me Ghosted" had some good moments, but I prefer stories that don't have mention of sexual attraction. Her character, Sophie, seemed to be involved in sensuality every time she looked at a person of the opposite sex. She kind of gave wolf whistles as she sized up men. That, to me, is immature, and a turn off.Her story is about having a ghost as a constant companion. She had an elderly English gentleman, but she was a medium who could see ghosts. As she was searching for a job, she found a good prospect and not only did she immediately get unexpectedly hired, but she saw the perspective employer had a ghost attached around his neck too. He told her it attached itself to him when he moved into his new office. This ghost was haunting him. It was scaring all the clients that came into his office, and his clients were children. That will never be funny in my eyes.Of course there is an immediate sexual attraction between her and her new boss that they try to control. She brings up this subject several times in reminding herself that they end up doing things that are inappropriate in an employer-employee situation, yet she doesn't follow through with her resolve to stay out of temptation. That stuff was not funny either.I gave this author one star, because this story left a lot to be desired in character development in the field of morality.  Spiritually, it was impure.
