The Ghost of Husbands Past: A Southern Gothic Romance

By Nola Ravenwood

What do you do when your dead husband comes back... to help you fall in love with someone else?

Harper Bennett has been a widow for five years. She talks to her late husband's photo every night, wears his old Yale t-shirts to bed, and has turned their life together into a carefully preserved shrine. She's not living-she's existing. And everyone knows it.

When Harper inherits a historic mansion in Savannah, her family hopes a fresh start will finally help her move forward. What they don't expect is for the house's "thin veil" to allow Harper to see what's been there all along: Daniel's ghost, who's been watching over her since the day he died.

Their reunion should be everything Harper's dreamed of for five years. Instead, it's complicated. Because Daniel isn't trapped by the house-he's trapped by Harper's grief. And he can't move on to whatever comes next until she does.

His solution? Play supernatural matchmaker and help her fall in love again.

Enter Noah Carlisle: a patient contractor who's survived his own loss, doesn't run screaming when Harper mentions her ghost problem, and makes her feel alive for the first time in years. As Harper navigates dating while her dead husband coaches her from the sidelines, she faces an impossible choice: hold onto the past or embrace a future she never thought she'd deserve.

But love is rarely simple, and when you're caught between the ghost of your past and the promise of your future, letting go becomes the ultimate act of love.
