In Love With a Haunted House (The Shades of Love)

July 14, 2014

This unique romance features a down-on-her-luck heroine with a broken heart, thrown together with her hero by their shared desire for a particularly charming house--and each other. It is made even sweeter by an unlikely character; the ghost of an adorable old lady who meddles in their affairs from beyond the grave, acting like a spectator and conspirator in their budding romance. The book is often hilarious, sprinkled generously with humor that had me breaking into smiles and laughs at...

In Love With A Haunted House was a lovely and heartwarming piece of chick lit with a paranormal twist.

It left me feeling luke-warm. ) 2 people...

This book grabbed me from the first sentence, by bringing the main character to life. I was drawn in to the saga with that sentence, and quickly understood that her life was going to change and she wasn't going to take the problems lying down. Mallory is a strong character, not a wishy-washy woman, she picks herself up and moves on without being bitter or downtrodden. The author's sense of humor is apparent throughout the book, as one tiny mishap after another happens, some caused by...
