Synopsis (Goodreads):
Few things in life can come between a grim reaper and her coffee, but the sexy, sultry son of Satan is one of them. Now that Reyes Farrow has asked for her hand, Charley Davidson feels it's time to learn more about his past, but Reyes is reluctant to open up. When the official FBI file of his childhood abduction lands in her lap, Charley decides to go behind her mysterious beau’s back and conduct her own investigation. Because what could go wrong?

Unfortunately, another case has fallen into her lap—one with dangerous implications. Some very insistent men want Charley to hunt down a witness who is scheduled to testify against their boss, a major player in the local crime syndicate. If Charley doesn't come up with an address in 48 hours, the people closest to her will start to disappear.

Add to that a desperate man in search of the soul he lost in a card game, a dogged mother determined to find the ghost of her son, and a beautiful, young Deaf boy haunted by his new ability to see the departed as clearly as he sees the living, and Charley has her hands full. The fact that Reyes has caught on to her latest venture only adds fuel to the inferno that he is. Good thing for Charley she's used to multi-tasking and always up for a challenge…especially when that challenge comes in the form of Reyes Farrow.
Thoughts on Sixth Grave on the Edge: Charley's at it again. And by that, I mean she's rushing headfirst into trouble. This, quite naturally, is the type of trouble that has a high probability of  leaving her bleeding and damaged on the side of a deserted highway somewhere. Not that THAT particular scenario happened THIS TIME, but it has happened in the past. As we all remember.

But Charley's going to be Charley. Even Reyes can't rein her in when it comes to helping others. And, let's face it, Reyes has a pretty lethal glare when he sets his mind to it.

Anywho. Charley's doing her thing. She's learning more about the power she wields and she's getting trickles of information as to why she's actually being targeted by Reyes's father (aka, Satan). Methinks someone isn't telling the entire truth and it's probably the Dark Lord who's a known liar and corrupter.

That's just my opinion, though.

Prophecies. Danger. Bad guys who want to do some very bad things. Ghosts. Demons. Sexy Reyes rushing in to save the day all naked and wet. All in all, it's just another day in the life of Charley Davidson.
