A dashing ghost hunter and the bookseller who made up the ghosts he's chasing wind up entangled in more

ways than one in this steamy contemporary romance from the author of Text Appeal, perfect for fans of Ashley

Poston and Chloe Liese.

Homebody Lex McCall loves her sleepy Vermont town and quiet bookstore job. After her family, friends, and

exes all moved away to seek futures elsewhere, Lex set one rule: no dating tourists, newcomers, or anyone

else who is bound to leave her behind. When the bookshop owner, eager to off-load the supposedly haunted

building, offers to sell the store to Lex at an unbeatable price, Lex jumps at the chance to further put down

roots.

Then handsome stranger James stops by the bookstore. Lex assumes he's just another tourist passing through,

but it turns out he's part of a ghost-hunting documentary crew that's looking into the many "verified" ghost stories

in town. Lex can't resist getting involved--especially because these so-called ghosts are actually made-up

stories from Haunted Happenings, her hobby vlog from a decade prior. Worried her ghost-faking secret will get

out and ruin her chance to buy the store, she tampers with the ghosthunters' research and skews the results.

After all, James's stay is only temporary, and her career dreams come first.

But as they spend more time together, Lex realizes she's falling for James. Worse, there's more at stake than her

simply being found out and losing his affection: his mission isn't as frivolous as it seems, and her interference

may cost him much more than a spooky story.

This not-quite ghost story is sure to delight Gilmore Girls fans and anyone who loves flirty romances with a

little extra spirit.
