I really hope this is the last of the series. It felt like a wrap up - the flashbacks, the slight foreshadowing at the end, characters moving on. Of course, if the author or publisher are feeling greedy from ratings and sales for this one, the series will go on. I feel that would be a mistake. I could possibly see an off-shoot series, based on one or more of the characters, but this haunted guesthouse series needs to end.
And I'd like to point out to the other reviews who refer to EJ Copperman as "she" - Copperman is a pen name for author Jeff Cohen (of the Aaron Tucker series). I'm actually surprised that anyone could think that these books were written by a woman. At no point in the series did I ever feel like this was written by a female.
Overall, I was "just ok" with this series - the guesthouse thing was ok, but I think the character of Melissa was too mature for her age. Allison had WAY too much lasting hate towards her ex and it got old and tired really fast. It was very distracting all through the series. Copperman/Cohen's habit of adding an unnecessary snarky description in the middle of a quoted conversation is very annoying. Maybe it would work once or twice, but it's all through all of the books. It is so distracting to me that I often have to go back and re-read the conversations again to keep track of seeing who is speaking and what they are saying. And overall, the picture Allison paints of people in New Jersey are really horrid. This is not the Stephanie Plum snark - this is unnecessarily rude.

There were a LOT of story lines in this book. More than usual, and it was a bit hard to keep track of them all, and lended even more to the feeling that this was the last book of the series, and was a wrap-up of the whole series. I would have rated up another star if the snark had been toned down. Even with all the story lines and the character developments, it was a good book. But the ex hate and the snark was just too much for me to rate it "I really liked it".
