Once Upon Our Time

Cordelia Mae Achley spent a decade running from the spirits that once defined her existence. After walking away from her life as a medium, she prefers the quiet anonymity of reading tarot cards and selling charms to inquisitive tourists. For Delia, the supernatural world is a burden best left in the rearview mirror, and she is more than ready for a season of peace while house-sitting in the serene hills of Tennessee.

The universe, however, has other plans. Her solitude is shattered by the arrival of an unexpected guest: a handsome, charming soldier from the Civil War era who refuses to cross over. As she is pulled back into the realm of the afterlife, the boundaries between the living and the dead begin to blur in ways she never anticipated.

Blending the eerie allure of psychic phenomena with a sweeping, star-crossed romance, this story is a must-read for fans of paranormal fiction. It masterfully weaves the "ghost next door" trope with a slow-burn connection that defies the limitations of time. If you are looking for an atmospheric tale where destiny is written in the cards and love transcends the grave, prepare to be haunted by this captivating journey.
