Sexton St. Croix lives the life of the privileged and wealthy. He works hard as the heir to the St. Croix fortune, spearheaded by its Cruise Line. He plays even harder-women aren't hard to come by when you're good-looking, charming, and ungodly rich.
For Bree Emery, living the life of a gifted psychic isn't always charmed. She works a lot, plays a little, and her dwindling bank account forces her to take just about any job that comes along. That's how she ends up on the SS Majestic, walking into the owner's suite to meet a man wearing nothing but boxers adorned with hamburgers and french fries, and the word supersized emblazoned on the fly.
Some girls might be shocked. Some guys might be embarrassed. Sex and Bree, who are anything but the embarrassingly shockable type, take it all in stride.
There's a ghost haunting the SS Majestic, and it's not your average, run-of-the-mill type ghost. Oh, no. This cruise ship is haunted by one Miss Daisy Alton, a woman who died long before her time in the swinging Jazz era of the early 1920's.
Daisy was a flapper, a gay-hearted, outgoing, exuberant woman who performed at small-time clubs and speakeasies to her hearts content. But aboard the SS Majestic, Daisy met her match in a wealthy man who vowed to love her for eternity. Although it was sure to invoke a scandal, she agreed to marry her love, only to be gunned down, along with the regal Randolph St. Croix, by a cunning killer. The murder of St. Croix was staged to look like a love triangle gone wrong, and Daisy was branded a murderess. No way was this feisty flapper going to leave this ship until everyone knew the truth.
For Sexton, that means hiring Bree to rid his cash cow of the flamboyant ghost. For Bree, it means helping Daisy prove that she didn't murder Randolph, and setting her soul free.
The passion, romance, tempers, and arguments that ensue, only add to this delectable story of ghosts and passion that refuses to be denied. CRAZY FOR YOU is a delightful story that will have you laughing out loud, and wishing for all you're worth that Daisy gets the justice she deserves. And if Bree and Sex do a little investigating into that blatant claim of supersized along the way, it just makes the story even more devilish.

This is a wonderful story and I didn't want to put it down. You have a past story and a present story and they flow together so nicely.
Sexton St.Croix is the playboy you read about in the papers, with a different woman on his arm every night. He comes form an old and wealthy family who built their fortunes in the cruise line industry. Back in 1925 his great great uncle Randolph was involved in a scandal with a flapper named Daisy. He jilted his "proper" fiance in order to propose to Daisy and give her a family heirloom ring, a huge fire Opal. Something went wrong and it is said that Daisy murdered him on the ship before committing suicide. The ring was never found.
Sexton is trying to put that ship back in the water after sitting for 80 years and restoring it to it's glory. But Daisy's ghost is giving him trouble.
Sexton decides to invite a bunch of psychics and clairvoyants on a 5 day cruise. Bree Emery is considered the best, so Sexton has her stay in Daisy's cabin, the scene of the crime.
Sexton and Bree have wonderful chemistry. One of the funniest scenes comes from a vision Bree gets just by touching Sexton. This book is great. Funny, romantic and a little mystery to solve!
You'll enjoy it.

Author Kate Angell has written a fun, hot, rollicking good story.
Bree Emery, a clairsentient, meaning she reads through her sense of touch, is hired to rid an ocean liner of its resident ghost, 1925 flapper Daisy Alton. Reported to have murdered her lover and then committed suicide, Daisy looks to Bree to clear her name.
The owner of the St Croix cruise line, playboy Sexton St Croix views Daisy's ghostly presence with distaste. Not only did she murder his great grand-uncle Rudolph, bookings are non-existent on the ship since people don't like to sail with a ghost. The ghost has to go or the interior fittings will be auctioned off and the ship will be broken up and sold for scrap.
Bree and Sexton's relationship begins as business and ends up much more. Sexton's transition from hedonist to a one-woman-man is amusing, sweet and believable. Bree's gradual admiration and love for Sexton is also well done.
There are hot, sensual scenes in the book, but also three great loves stories.
Flipping from events of 1925 to present day is handled well, allowing the reader to try and guess who murdered Daisy and Randolph and why.
Altogether a great read and one I highly recommend. I look forward to reading Kate Angell's other books.

Sexton St. Croix has a problem. A big problem. His ocean liner is haunted by a flapper he thinks is responsible for his great uncles death. Daisy Alton has got to go before he has to put his ship in dry dock. In order to make this happen he hosts a psychic cruise. He will do what he can to make her disappear. But when sexy Bree Emery a clairsentience walks into his stateroom and touches him, Sex has to wonder if he may have just met the woman he will finally settle down with.
Bree can see the past by simply touching something and her connection to Daisy is a strong one. She is there to prove that the flapper was not a murder but instead innocent of what people believe of her. She wants to be focused on her task but sexy Sexton won't let her hide from her attraction to him. She has only a few days to do what she is there to do and hopefully she will be able to walk away with her heart in tact.
This was a charming story with three different romantic storylines running at the same time. You would think that would be too much but Ms. Angell balances them and each is well crafted and important to the ending. Ms. Angell is a talented storyteller and I look forward to picking up the rest of her titles.

Sexton St. Croix's cruise ship is haunted and he either has to get rid of the ghost, or sell the ship for scrap. In one last effort to convince the ghost to leave the ship, he books a psychics' cruise and hires Bree Emory, a reputable clairsentient, to counteract the charlatons on board. Bree embarks on an 80-year-old murder investigation, encountering resistance to the truth from even Sex himself. But even though he doubts her findings, he's drawn to Bree with a magnetism similar to the flapper ghost and her beau of so long ago.
The hero is yummy, the heroine is intelligent and interesting, and both have firm goals. Without a doubt, Daisy is the most delightful ghost I've ever read! This book was a pleasure to read--funny, yet it also pulled on the heartstrings.
Highly recommended!!!
