“I have quite the busy schedule,” I said, glancing at the calendar that Gareth had hung on the wall for me. “Makes you wonder how I found time to fall in love.”

“You always make time for the important things,” Gareth said. He stopped and sniffed the air. “Why do you smell like cat vomit?”

“As much as I’d love to blame Magpie, it’s Raisa’s fault. She made me bathe in some gross liquid she cooked in her cauldron. For my own protection, of course.”

He wrinkled his nose. “I’m glad I was at the library earlier.”

“How do you have a sense of smell?” I asked. “You’re dead. Shouldn’t your nostrils be for show only?”

“I don’t have a working body the way you do,” he said. “But I have certain abilities thanks to Lyra Grey.”

“Who’s that?”

“One of the Grey sisters.” He made a dismissive gesture. “Not to worry. You’ll see them at the wedding.”

Assuming there was a wedding.

“If you intend to go to harp therapy tonight,” Gareth said, “then you should bake biscuits. You haven’t brought a snack in weeks. The others will talk.”

I jerked upright. “I bake?” That didn’t sound like me.

“Not well.”

Okay, that sounded like me. “Biscuits? Like with gravy?”

He rolled his eyes. “Cookies. I mean cookies.”

Oh. “Are biscuits a Scottish thing?”

He ignored my question. “Use the recipe book. You have your flaws, but you’re capable of following simple directions.” He hesitated. “Most of the time.”

“Where can I find this wonderful invention called a recipe book?” I asked.

He pointed to the pantry. “I’m heading to the gym at the country club. I’ll see you later.”

“You exercise?” What was the point of a ghost working out?

“No, but some rather handsome lads do,” Gareth said.

Ah. “Enjoy!”

Once he disappeared, I flipped through the pages of the recipe book. Speedy Star Cookies. Perfect, since I didn’t have a lot of time. I scanned the ingredient list and then rummaged through the pantry to see whether I had everything. It was easy since all the contents were color-coded and alphabetized. Gareth’s perfectionism came in handy on occasion.

I rolled up my sleeves and set to work.
