Enchanting Eve: Halloween Romance (Sweet Holiday Romance Book 1)

by Darci Balogh 

Two men. One possibly haunted house. A Halloween she’ll never forget.

A feel-good small town Halloween romance that delivers a sweet romantic story with a touch of magic. Oh, yes, and a pair of black cats with attitude…purrfect reading for a fall afternoon.

Eve’s simple life in her home town has felt empty since her father passed away.

Living in the beautiful old house where she grew up is some comfort to her, but being naturally introverted and loving cats isn’t exactly pushing her into a healthy social life. She misses the joy she used to feel and she’s not sure if she will ever find happiness again.

When Eve decides to take part in a few of her most cherished Halloween traditions that she used to share with her father, life gets a little–shall we say–sticky?

First she finds out her high school crush is returning home. Then she meets the young handsome teacher who is taking over her father’s job. And finally she discovers that she may be living in a haunted house.

Is her strong attraction to the ‘one that got away’ the start of something beautiful or will the old fashioned charm of the new guy in town win her over?

Are the strange coincidences in her house leading up to Halloween just her imagination or is someone trying to tell her something?

Something that could change her life forever…

Turning Back Time: Clean and Wholesome Romance with a Fun Matchmaking Twist (A Crestfield Inn romance Book 1)

by Elsie Davis

A 200-year-old mystery with family honor at stake, but the truth could destroy any chance for love.

As a mystery writer, Sarah’s radar tops the Richter scale when she finds a message in an old chest. For generations, nefarious stories of Captain Tremont had been recounted, tainting their family’s honor. With a chance for redemption and the bonus of a story…how could she resist the lure of 1800s history and the secrets of the past?

Blake is a history geek who’s intrigued by the missing links in his family tree. And digging through archived records is more thrilling than working on his social skills. Usually flustered by his inability to grasp the rules of dating, he feels much more comfortable assisting the attractive author digging into her family’s past.

Unaware a matchmaking spirit has taken an interest, the couple continues to bond as they wind their way through history. But when they are blindsided by the truth, it has the power to drive them apart forever. Will they let the past destroy their chance at happiness or can they prove love conquers all?

Turning Back Time is the captivating first book in the Crestfield Inn clean romance series. If you like special kinds of soulmates, a splash of the supernatural, and wholesome relationships, then you’ll adore Elsie Davis’s sweet bit of fun filled with romance and mystery.

Grab a copy of Turning Back Time and let love rewrite history!

Ghost of a Chance (Second Chance at Love Series, Book 2)

by S.J. MacIver

Josh Hankins, an up-and-coming movie star, and Tori Olson, his business manager, were two of the most envied and sought after people in Hollywood—until the automobile accident.

When Josh and Tori awake from the crash, they continue to walk among the living, but are no longer alive.

Tori, who counted herself a disciple of Jesus Christ, wonders why God is doing this to her.

Josh never showed outward signs of his faith, though something inside always lifted him through good times and bad.

Searching for answers and hoping for eternal peace, Josh and Tori discover something else: they love each other.

But in the uncertain netherworld, such a love—even when flavored with pumpkin chocolate-chip muffins—barely stands a ghost of a chance.
