The Kindred Spirits Supper Club by Amy E. Reichert
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Jobless and forced home
to Wisconsin, journalist Sabrina Monroe can tolerate reunions with
frenemies and kisses from old boyfriends, but not the literal ghosts
that greet her in this heartwarming tale of the power of love and
connection from acclaimed author Amy E. Reichert.
For Sabrina
Monroe, moving back home to the Wisconsin Dells–the self-described
Waterpark Capital of the World–means returning to the Monroe family
curse: the women in her family can see spirits who come to them for help
with unfinished business. But Sabrina’s always redirected the needy
spirits to her mom, who’s much better suited for the job. The one
exception has always been Molly, a bubbly rom-com loving ghost, who
stuck by Sabrina’s side all through her lonely childhood.
Her
personal life starts looking up when Ray, the new local restaurateur,
invites Sabrina to his supper club, where he flirts with her over his
famous Brandy Old-Fashioneds. He’s charming and handsome, but Sabrina
tells herself she doesn’t have time for romance–she needs to focus on
finding a job. Except the longer she’s in the Dells, the harder it is to
resist her feelings for Ray. Who can turn down a cute guy with a
fondness for rescue dogs and an obsession with perfecting his fried
cheese curds recipe?
When the Dells starts to feel like home for
the first time and with Ray in her corner, Sabrina begins to realize
that she can make a difference and help others wherever she is.

This is the first book by Amy E. Reichert that I read and I’ve got to say I regret not having read any of her other books. This is a very peculiar story, which combines perfectly an extraordinary side with romance and fun.
I loved the characters. I could really relate to Sabrina, for many different reasons and I hated everything she was going through. However, I liked the way the character developed. Ray, on the other hand, was lovely, awesome and perfect. I need a Ray in my life! I really liked Molly too!
The romance part was the perfect amount of sweet and the ending was just perfect. I liked learning about Wisconsin and how Ray liked to cook, that definitely added something special to the story. Overall, the story was heartwarming, captivating and charming. It is just what I needed!
