The Spirit Child (Tessa Lamar Novels)

As a part-time shrink, full-time psychic, and one of only two living Nunnehi--the Cherokee equivalent to a fairy--Tessa Lamar has her hands full. When her best friend guilts her into treating a gifted nine-year-old pageant queen, who's confessed to murdering her stepfather, Tessa breaks her rule to never work with kids. But how can a woman without a flicker of maternal instinct help a little girl who's a cross between Honey Booboo and the Long Island Medium? To make matters worse, Tessa and her two opinionated mates can't seem to agree on the color of the sky, let alone how to build a life together. The relationship threatens to implode when Tessa's called in to help catch a child-killer and one of his ghostly victims follows her home. Armed with ancient magic, Tessa must risk her life to stop the murderer while risking her heart to a pint-sized psychic. The Spirit Child is a stand-alone novel and the third Tessa Lamar Novel. If you like southern humor, supernatural creatures, and a healthy dose of romance, then you'll love this series.
