Need help finding a book

[Jariah]

I dont have a lot of specifics. Female looking for information about her father. Instead finds a little person and a female working for this man that they never see. This man has a lot of painting of females that are actually ghosts/souls. In the end of the series he was able to free his soul/ghost

You say 'in the end of the series' so is it a book series you are looking for?

Young Adult?

The 'little person' , was this a dwarf?

Thanks
Danny

Nope, definitely not going adult.
I did figure out the author.. Chris Marie Green. Took me a few hours
