Even though you think you know what is going on you can't absoluelty be sure.
Just that little hint of could it be? Is he a ghost or isn't he. Who is the bad guy? Set in a wonderful English Manor with a village of people that have secrets. Oct 11, Tina rated it really liked it. This was a very enjoyable read with a nice little twist which I didn't figure out until the author mentioned it. I had my suspicions but the outcome was different than what I had in mind. It was cleverly created. For a fun, keep-a-smile-on-your-face read, this is the one! Mar 21, Elaine rated it it was amazing. I can't believe I like this book so much better than the last one I read by this author!
Mar 27, Sandra marked it as to-read Shelves: Above and beyond expectations I love Billie and max. It was so awesome how everything was put together and the turn of events that occurred and led to them to finally getting the answers. Would most definitely read again.

Feb 08, sandy forguson rated it it was amazing. Sep 14, Paranormal Romance rated it liked it Shelves: With the death of her parents and her brother, there is nothing holding the heroine to her home town of Nantucket. So when she is name sole heir to an estate in England, she thanks her good fortune and sets out for her new life.
Upon arrival in the small village, she soon learns that her new home is haunted by the frightening but much beloved spirt of it's previous owner. Afraid of ghosts, but possessing a strong sense of courage, she nether the less stakes claim to her new ownership. The first With the death of her parents and her brother, there is nothing holding the heroine to her home town of Nantucket. The first night, exhausted by her journey, she is visited by this ghost. She is terrified but refuses to back down from his demands for her to leave and even if her knees are shaking, she'll never allow his shouting or overbearing arrogance to chase her away.
She vows to find why the man's ghost still haunts her home and in the process find a way to send him to the afterlife and leave her in peace. She seeks the aid of the local Vicar. The man may not be hansom but his is kind, gentle and quickly becomes the closest friend she's ever known. He is a shy man who stutters through his sentences upon first meeting but gradually opens up and his calm and safe personality draws her to him.
And she needs him more than ever as the bane of her existence, the hero's ghost, plagues her nightly. Where the vicar is easy and soothing, the hero is passionate and horribly frustrating. He makes demands of her, shouts at her whenever she puts herself into situations where her safety could be in danger. She is confused as to why and how she could possible grow to feel affection and maybe even love for 2 men so drastically different.
She beings to think to herself that her 'ghost' is not truly a ghost. He is a solid man and when he comes to her bed, she can feel his warmth and in his arms she can feel his passion. Yet with the Vicar, she feels that their love and friendship will surely outlast whatever mindless passion she feels with the hero.
So when the gentle man offers marriage she accepts. Much to the hero's fury. But what is she to do? She loves the Vicar, she's safe with the Vicar and even if the hero's a real man not a ghost, there's still no future for them. Especially knowing he keeps secrets from her. Secrets about why he died, why his father was murders and who is behind the smuggling on her property. Marriage to the man she's chosen, she is frustrated by his lack of passion for her. Weeks go by without them commutating their marriage. She's able to resist the hero's advances out of loyalty for her new husband but she knows that she can't go on living life this.
Then she is injured, she hits her head.
And in the process, she is finally able to see clearly. That her husband is actually the hero is disguise. He survived the many attempts on his life and proceeded to fake his death and life in the village as the vicar to uncover the truth of who's behind the evil deeds. He never imagined that such a woman as the heroine would come into his life and even less how he would grow to love her as both men.
When she finds out about this betrayal, she sets about making both men pay. But in the end, she's finally found that just one man is everything she's ever wanted. Safety, love, peace and passion. I don't know how I feel about this book.
On one hand I applaud the author for her success in fooling me regarding the Vicar's true identity. Because never once did I suspect her was the hero until the moment the truth was revealed. I thought his to be the villain, the one behind the smuggling, not the hero himself.
It was well done. Yet on the other hand, I don't enjoy love triangle themed novels usually because I don't understand a woman loving 2 men at the same time. Actually for most of the book, I genuinely thought the Vicar was the man who would win the heroine true affections. She did seem to sway towards him more emotionally then she did the hero.

With the hero it just seemed like lust to me. So, I'm a bit confused with this one. I liked it, thought it was well written and clever with it's secrets and mystery so I believe is deserving of a healthy 3 stars. Regardless, I recommend this book. May 30, Gloriamarie rated it did not like it. Honestly and gee whiz. Could we at least have an appearance of verisimilitude? One thing I am adamant about is the implied contract between author and reader. If you the author expect me the reader to spend my money on your hard labor, then your hard labor had better be good labor and not laziness.
This author is lazy. Also insulting to a woman's intelligence. I think the reason I am so distressed is because this book almost makes it. The grammar is excellent. The vocabulary is excellent. The punc Honestly and gee whiz. The punctuation, spelling, syntax, editing, all excellent. I daresay that given when the book was written, the sexy times were even a bit risque. I enjoyed the banter between Our Heroine and Our Hero.
I enjoyed Our Heroine falling in love with two such different men. But the plot was so predictable. I am trying very hard not to include spoilers. So let me try to say it this way. Donna Fletcher, please check with the Church of England and find out the requirements for becoming a vicar.
Then there is the bit when she says "So we really are married, then? I made sure of it" if I had been reading an actual book I would have thrown it across the room in disgust.
But as I was reading my Kindle, I didn't want to risk breaking it. How stupid does the author and by inference, Our Hero, think Our Heroine is? Has Donna Fletcher ever been to a wedding? Read any wedding service of any sort at all? Because one of the most components of every marriage service is the exchange of names and in order for a couple to be legally married they have to exchange their actual legal names. How would Our Heroine have failed to notice?
As I said above, an insult to a woman's intelligence. It was a mystery and love story all rolled in one. Max is a ghost who has not went into the light. He is a rogue, and devilishly handsome, and until she is able to find the reason of his demise, he will haunt her. Then there is the Vicar John. The total opposite of Max, sweet, caring and would make a wonderful husband and father. I really liked this book. The mystery and intrigue of it. How can you go wrong with 2 hunky men, 1 being a ghost, murder, and mystery?
This book kept me reading till the end. I actually had to stop myself from reading the end first.
I wanted to know who she ended up with and who the murderer was. I loved the dialog between them all, and the humor. I could not put this book down. She did a wonderful job of putting you in the book. You knew each person and felt like you were a part of the mystery solving.
You loved who she did, laughed and hurt as Billie did. For me this was not one of my normal books, but loved it all the same. Oct 04, Joelle rated it it was amazing. What a cute story.

What she got was a wealthy but forbidding estate full of dour colors and lifeless severity, a couple of friendly servants who were a bit aghast at her independence, a murder mystery, and the sexy as sin ghost of the former Earl of Strathorn, Maximillian Radborne, who insisted in quite a full-blooded and corporeal fashion that the manor was his, the bedroom was his, and while Billie was welcome in it, she was to do nothing at all with her new home, as he liked it quite a lot just as it stands. Just don't let anyone catch you smiling, they might think your crazy!
The story is rife with secret passages, secret relationships and more secrets. This was a fun read that slowed down a couple of times but not too much. Billie is a refreshing heroine who plays a humorous part to Maximillan's serious authoritative lord Bit of a paranormal as there is a ghost aspect. Billie is a refreshing heroine who plays a humorous part to Maximillan's serious authoritative lord of the manor as hero. What I remember most about this novel is how I spent two days reading pretty much non-stop to reach a climax which was I suppose the direction the mid-ending takes could be construed as daring but honestly I just didn't buy it.
Which was a shame because I think there was a lot of potential here and I wouldn't write this author off just from this one novel. For some there might have been no problem but for me it was a bit of a let down. Wow Couldn't put it down. Had to know what I as going on. Had you guessing for a while and then when you find out who then you just can't believe it. You should've known the whole time. The clues were there. Great love story and I loved the plot.
