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.

      Starred review from July 1, 2024

      When she was a young teen in Stowe, VT, Lex (a.k.a. Luna) and her best friend Natalie created a ghost-story vlog. Sometimes the background stories were true, and sometimes they came straight from Luna's imagination. Lex never imagined anyone would believe that the hauntings were real. Now in her 30s, Lex is the manager of a quiet used-book store in Stowe. She knows all the full-time residents and simply ignores--and definitely doesn't date--vacationers and newcomers. People leave, and she isn't going to set herself up for another heartbreak--until James, a newcomer, asks her out. She soon discovers that James and his ghost-hunting documentary crew are in town to verify the stories from her younger self's vlog. Lex is highly amused and reunites her friends to secretly lend some extra sound effects to the filming. As days pass, Lex starts to fall in love with James, a man whose time in Stowe is quickly drawing to a close. This steamy slow burn is filled with great characters, from the protagonists to the many spirits Luna vlogged about. VERDICT Featuring wonderfully developed characters and fluid, well-paced writing, Roberts's (Text Appeal) latest is highly recommended for fans of small-town and supernatural romances.--Heather Miller Cover
