Return to Palm Court is set in the Lowcountry and there are ghosts! Who could ask for more? The second book in a series by Stephanie Edwards so I would suggest getting the background of the characters by reading The Haunting on Palm Court first. I love the relationship between sisters Brittany and Blake. I hope this story continues!

I want to thank Netgalley and the author for gifting me the ebook. A good mystery/thriller novel. Recommend

This was a mistake... I had completely forgotten about the first book. It was only after I read two chapters and noticed how boring it was that I realized this was the second book of that series...
I am not a quitter, so I ended up reading it all.
I can't say I was disappointed because I knew this book was going to be just as lame as the first one.

I really enjoyed reading through this book, there were so many paranormal creatures in this book. The writing was good and I enjoyed just going through the journey.

This is a well written ghost story that takes place in Lowcountry, Isle of Palms. The same cast of characters is back for book 2, including Parker, a malevolent ghost. I loved the suspense and heavy paranormal aspect to this book. I would suggest reading book 1, I think knowing the background would be beneficial in enjoying this book.

This is book 2 in the Isle of Palms Suspense series and can be read as a stand alone. Brittany is at a cross roads in her life and returns to the Low Country to help her sister Blake run her B&B and help watch her young niece. Ghosts and spirits are numerous at Isle of Palms and when young Macy talks about her invisible friend, Brittany is very uneasy. This is my first read of Stephanie Edwards, apparently she is well known for her ghost stories. I will probably look for additional books in this series. I love the setting and the characters were interesting. I received a copy of this ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This will not be a favorite of mine. The story jumps around so quickly it was just difficult to follow. Brittany as a young child is ill and running a fever. One minute she had a low fever 99.3 then it rises to 101 and it appears based
on the few descriptions she is having a seizure, they rush her to the hospital and it is 104. They get her set up with IV high dose antibiotics and take her for tests. What appears to be minutes the Dr. returns and say the fever has broke but Brittany is deaf. There is no waiting, no description of what they are going through. This explains Brittany's being deaf but the rest of the story was all over the place. Maybe if I had read the first book it might have made sense, but it did not.

This was such a nail biter of a page turner. A great read. I loved the book. The plot was very well written and I cannot wait for another book. This was from a new to me and great author. I really enjoyed the book. Will definitely recommend this book.

The second book in the Isle of Palms Suspense series grabbed my attention from page one. Although this is part of a series, this is the first book I have read by Author Stephanie Edwards and it definitely will not be my last! With a combination of devious and violent ghosts, and the majestical setting of the low country, what more could you ask for? After graduating with a Masters in Architecture, Brittany Nelson moves in with sister Blake and her husband to help with the B&B that used to be the Mason family home, and her niece, Macy. Having lost her hearing as a toddler, due to an illness, Brittany has never let it hold her back. Soon to be married, Brittany is excited about her future, especially getting to spend time with her beautiful niece, until a violent ghost, Parker, returns to cause havoc. Will Brittany and Blake be able to send Parker back to where he belongs or will the dangers only escalate? I highly recommend this amazing book! Author Stephanie Edwards is definitely on my favorites list! I am so excited to see what this awesome Author has in store for us next!

This was not the book for me I'm afraid. I just couldn't get into the story and the characters felt a bit fake to me. The supernatural premise was interesting and I enjoyed parts of the story. I persevered and finished the book but it took me such a long time because I kept putting it down.

The fact the main character was deaf was something I enjoyed and I don't know if I'd read the first book I may have been more invested.

Overall I think this is probably a good book if it captures your interest - it just wasn't for me.

3.75 stars

This is second book in the Isle of Palms Suspense series by Stephanie Edwards.

The main character, Brittney Nelson is deaf and I find this to be a fascinating choice for the author. She learned at a young age to sign with ALS but didn't lose her ability to speak. I liked getting to see all the gadgets available to assist the deaf. They have sure come a long way with that technology.

There is a lot different and unique about this story. The sisters also have these twitchy aspects about them too which gives this book a supernatural vibe as well.

In the previous book the spirit of Parker had been dealt with by binding him with a ritual. But somehow Parker has escaped this supernatural jail cell and is again taunting the sisters.

I don't want to get too much into the plot and story structure since that is the best part of this book and I don't want to give anything away. The with does get a bit choppy in the begging but that is easy to overlook since the story is so good. And the lack of flow only seems to happen in the beginning very briefly.

This can be read as a standalone but digging into book one will give you the needed backstory if you get lost.

I highly recommend reading this

Definitely pick this up if you are a cozy mystery lover.

I received this as an ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) in return for an honest review. I thank NetGalley, the publisher and the author for allowing me to read this title. Opinions are completely my own.

I throughly enjoyed this very entertaining book. Taking place in South Carolina, spiritual beings with powers, terrorizing a family. The main character Brittany, who is hearing impaired goes to help her sister Blake with her niece Macy. As Brittany tries to control a situation with the help of her deceased grandmother it turns out a blunder with the most unexpected!!!
What a whirlwind of a story that captures you at the beginning.

I did not realize when I read the first book, The Haunting of Palm Court, that there would be more. This book was a great read. I love a good mystery with some ghosts added in. Return to Palm Court seemed to call to me and now I'm looking forward to there being more books.

I received an ebook from Netgalley and this is my voluntary, honest review.

3.5 stars!
Fast paced, lighthearted mystery ghost story.
This is book 2 in the Isles of Palm Suspense and while it could be read as a standalone, I recommend reading book 1 to gain better insight about the back story of the characters real and ghostly.
After book 1, I was really curious as to what direction this book was going to take. This installment takes a unique perspective with one of the character which I was curious how it would play out.
Blake’s sister Brittainy,comes to the B and B in the Low Country to help her out and strange happenings begin to re occur.
A wayward spirit is back and he wants revenge. The story developed nicely and overall I enjoyed this read.
The imagery was beautifully described, however, some elements of the story just seemed to unbelievable even for a paranormal ghost story.
Nevertheless, I’m curious about what will happen next.

This is book two in the Isle of Palms Suspense series. Brittany Nelson lost her hearing as a toddler and her family raised her to be a strong independent woman. After graduate school she returns to South Carolina to help her sister at the family's bed and breakfast until she decides on a more permanent position. A violent ghost is haunting the B&B and Brittany must put him to rest for good.

This was an interesting story in that most of the family interacts with the spirit world. I have not read the first book in the series and perhaps it would have clued me in on some of the family background. I kept feeling like i was missing something throughout the book.

I would have liked to have had more character development. I like the characters but at times I had to go back a few pages to figure out who was who and how they fit into the scheme of things.

The plot was intriguing and is what kept me reading. I think I will go back to the first book to see what happened to Brittany's sister. Blake. it will also give me more information before going on to book three.

Thank you to NetGalley and the author for allowing me to read this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

When Brittany Nelson had lost her hearing as a toddler, her parents vowed they’d do everything so she could have a normal life. When she graduated her family couldn’t have been more proud. When Brittany decided to go to the Isle of Palms to help her sister Blake and husband Clint with the B&B, plus help take care of their three year old daughter Macy, Brittany had no idea what was ahead of them all.

When sudden strange occurrences started happening, Brittany had a strange feeling and when she realized who Macy’s ‘friend’ was – the one no one else could see – she was shocked and horrified. Had the ghost of Blake’s ex returned? Why was Parker in the vicinity? Hadn’t he caused enough trouble in the past?

Return to Palm Court is the 2nd in the Isle of Palms Suspense series by Stephanie Edwards and it was nothing like I expected! Ghosts and spirits, good ones and bad – I hadn’t read the first in the series and although this one is fine as a standalone, I would suggest for full understanding to read #1 first 😊 Different (with the MC being deaf), interesting and reasonably entertaining.

With thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my digital ARC to read in exchange for an honest review.

Another thrilling book written by Stephanie Edwards! Return to Palm Court is the second book in the Isle of Palms Series. Ms. Edwards shows her great imagination again in this fast paced must read book. She will thrill you once again in this delightful yet suspenseful story bringing back her wonderful characters in a scary Southern environment!! She has such wonderful descriptive settings that will make you feel you are at The Palm Court. This paranormal fantasy will bring any twist and turns also has a lot of family involvement!! I highly recommend this book and the first one, they will make great beach reads!!

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the opportunity to read and review this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This book, wow. I had to keep reading it once I started, I could not put it down no matter what I needed to do. Very glad that I was off work or that could of been interesting. It moved along at a great pace making for an extremely comfortable and relaxing read. The characters are fantastic and by the end of the book, you feel as though you know them and you cannot help but love them. The story will grab you and keep you reading till the end and then you need more. This book is a must read, no doubt about it.

Brittney returns to South Carolina to her sisters home to help out with her niece and the B & B. Things take a turn for the worse fairly quickly. Parker returns! Can they succeed in getting him to vanish again!?
Brittney is deaf, she can read lips. This is her story. She can also see spirits and so can her sisters.
A fun quick supernatural story with unexpected twists and turns.

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the opportunity to read this book.

The Return to Palm Court by Stephanie Edwards
This is the second installment of the Palm Court series. This book tells Brittney’s story. Brittney is deaf, but can read lips. She also has the ability to see spirits. All of the Nelson girls have this ability. They have all had to deal with Blake’s ex, Parker, who refuses to accept the fact that Blake has moved on and that he is dead. Just when they thought they had banished him for good, he reappears. This time with a vengeance. What better way to get everyone’s attention than to kidnap Blake’s child, Macy. He and his dead twin, Maggie, are a force to be reckoned with.
All of the characters you loved from the first book are back to help banish Parker (and Maggie) for good. Will they succeed? Will Macy be okay? Can this group figure out the ancient spells in order to ensure their safety before Parker and Maggie wreak havoc on the whole island?
This is a great follow-up to The Haunting of Palm Court. You will want to stay up late to finish this one!
