by Jennifer Masters
Dr. Evelyn Pelletier thought a prestigious fellowship at a private research library in Beaumere, Vermont, was the career break of a lifetime. That was before she realized she would be sharing the space with Theo Cortez, her insufferably brilliant rival from graduate school. Forced into close quarters within an atmospheric, creaky mansion, the two must navigate academic tension while guarding their own secrets—Evelyn’s clandestine career as a romance novelist and Theo’s carefully constructed emotional walls.
This enchanting paranormal romance thrives on the academic rivals-to-lovers trope, blending intellectual sparring with a dose of the supernatural. As they clash over research methodologies, they soon discover the library is home to a meddling, persistent ghost with a flair for matchmaking. What begins as a battle of wits quickly spirals into a mystery that bridges the gap between the living and the dead.
For readers seeking a cozy yet spirited escape, this story offers the perfect blend of scholarly charm and spectral intrigue. With a setting steeped in history and a romance that crackles with chemistry, it is an irresistible page-turner. Will these two stubborn academics set aside their pride to solve the mansion’s haunting, or will their growing attraction become their most complicated research project yet?
