Synopsis
Zoey Donovan—empath, wedding planner, go-to girl for monsters with personal problems—has been marked twice for pickup by Death. On both occasions, Riley the smoking-hot reaper has refused to follow through. For his breach of protocol, Riley is now on probation. For her refusal to die on schedule, Zoey's right to live is challenged. She will have to undergo a life-or-death trial, but she won't know when or where it will happen…
Staying alive might not be so difficult if the Leprechaun Mafia hadn't strolled into town. Now every business owner with the slightest connection to the supernatural community is being threatened with the most appalling bad luck if they don't pay up. Mirrors are smashed, bodies are dropping, and Zoey's still got clients waiting for fabric samples.
With a little luck, she might be able to save everyone and still have time for a second attempt at a decent first date with her favorite reaper.
Review
I received Pooka in My Pantry in return for an honest review
as part of the tour hosted by Bewitching Book Tours. Pooka in My Pantry is the
next installment in A Monster Haven Story series. After everything that
happened in book one you would think Zoey would have a chance to deal with
being a monster magnet and being an empath. Maurice has received divorce
papers and decides to return home to see if they can try one more time to make
it work leaving Zoey alone. As if that’s not enough she’s now being evaluated
by the board, and Riley is on probation. Zoey also has a new roommate a very
filthy Pooka who has taken up residency in Maurice’s room.
Zoey learns that she has a bad luck curse from the board
plus she has bad luck from the pooka so they kind of cancel themselves out.
Simple you would think but she’s being harassed like the other hidden by the
leprechaun mafia which have given both her and Sara bad luck. Zoey has a full
plate filled with monsters, secrets, and a whole lot more. Hopefully she will
be able to survive what’s just around the corner.
Pooka in My Pantry is a fantastic novel. I love all the
hidden beings that Zoey has to deal with through the story. Each one has a
unique personality that enhances the story. The concept behind Zoey is also
really interesting plus with the humor added to the book it’s a fun read. I was super excited to be picked for the tour
because I loved the first one so much. I didn't have a monster in the closet
but I did have a few nights of stuff under the bed and outside the window. Zoey
is amazing, she’s smart, strong, fun and overall just a good person. I found
the story well written I felt like I was with zoey though the whole story, I
spent most of the book cheering her on as she deals with all the craziness that
is attracted to her. If you’re into Urban fantasy with a real storyline and
some humor this series is for you. I look forward to reading more in the
series.

Currently, she’s planning her next grand adventure. Rachel has one heroic husband, two genius kids, several annoyed cats, and an imaginary dog named Waffles.
She doesn’t have time for a real dog.
