Molly Harper
Author of the beloved Half Moon Hollow series of vampire romances (Nice Girls Don’t Have Fangs), Molly Harper has created a standalone paranormal romance in which a dilapidated haunted house could bring star-crossed lovers together—if it doesn’t kill them first!When Nina Linden is hired to landscape a private island off the New England coast, she sees it as her chance to rebuild her failing business after being cheated by her unscrupulous ex. She never expects that her new client, software mogul Deacon Whitney, would see more in her than just a talented gardener. Deacon has paid top dollar to the crews he’s hired to renovate the desolate Whitney estate—he had to, because the bumps, thumps, and unexplained sightings of ghostly figures in nineteenth-century dress are driving workers away faster than he can say “Boo.” But Nina shows no signs of being scared away, even as she experiences some unnerving apparitions herself. And as the two of them work closely together to restore the mansion’s faded glory, Deacon realizes that he’s found someone who doesn’t seem to like his fortune more than himself—while Nina may have finally found the one man she can trust with her bruised and battered heart. But something on the island doesn’t believe in true love…and if Nina and Deacon can’t figure out how to put these angry spirits to rest, their own love doesn’t stand a ghost of a chance.

"It was an interesting read. I enjoyed the slightly gothic atmosphere and liked the characters. I enjoyed and understood most of th pop culture references; However sometimes it felt like it was trying too hard to capture the feel of movies like Cabin in the Woods (we’re all going to die but we have great one- liners) and sometimes missed the mark for me. I also felt done of the romance was kind of glossed over (not steamy at all, which is fine, but not very detailed which I missed). <br/><br/>So not as good for me as her Half Moon Hollow books but still enjoyable."
