Synopsis (Goodreads):

Will I be burned by the flames of Detective Dragon?

Hannah: The building I’m renovating to turn into a B&B in the cozy coastal town of Mystic Harbor, where humans and monsters live in harmony, is either haunted or someone’s trying to sabotage me.

After someone rips up my flower beds for the third time, and the local law enforcement can’t find any clues, I head to Monsters, PI, where I hire a much-too-gorgeous dragon shifter to determine if I’m a victim of crime or paranormal activity. After someone creeps through my building late at night, Reylor moves in with me to further his investigation. Now that I’m bumping into him in the kitchen and snuggling up with him on the sofa, is it my fault if I’m falling in love?

Reylor: I don’t believe in ghosts, though I do believe that whoever’s sabotaging Hannah’s building renovations needs to be locked up for good. From the moment I meet Hannah, I know she’s my fated mate. I’ll do everything to protect her and solve this crime. If that means moving in with her and watching over her twenty-four-seven, then I’m the right dragon shifter for the job.

And when the case is closed? I’m going to make Hannah mine.

Thoughts on Dragon Detective: The newest client Monsters, PI is taking on is Hannah who might (or might not) have a little problem with a ghost at the B&B she's renovating. It's also slightly possible it's not a ghost at all and someone is trying to drive her out of business before her business even gets off the ground. And that's why she now has a sexy dragon shifter shadowing her every move.

Now, Reylor doesn't believe in ghosts. So if ghosts aren't causing the mischief at the B&B, it has to be a person. A person who might escalate to more than just vandalism as time goes on. And that is NOT okay with Reylor. The vandalism isn't okay, either, but the thought Hannah might end up hurt (or worse) gets his dragony side all riled up. Not in a good way.

So now Hannah and Reylor are spending all sorts of time together. She's working on the B&B renovations and he's right by her side. On the downside, every time they think they have the culprit figured out, something new happens. There was A LOT Hannah was dealing with, tbh.

A little bodyguarding, more than a little vandalism, a ghost, a break in, a male who knows the lady he wants to show his hoard to when he meets her, and a lady who doesn't mind a hunky male helping around the house. In fact, she's more than willing to keep him around after the investigation ends. *thumbs up*
