From the USA Today best-selling author of The Earl and My Lady, My Lord comes a delectably sexy tale of a lady torn between loyalty to her family and the man of every one of her forbidden dreams.

A dark castle, a handsome lord, and a wicked ghost...

When Bea Sinclaire's scapegrace brother begs her help to rescue a maiden from a haunted castle, she seizes the chance for adventure. If only Lord Peter "Tip" Cheriot didn't insist on coming along. How can she maintain a clear head in the face of danger when Tip is so utterly, deliciously distracting? Then an alluring ghost makes Bea a shocking offer, and he won't take no for an answer. What more could a lady desire?

Tip Cheriot has loved Bea forever, and he's determined to have her - no matter how scandalous his past. But a cursed specter has claimed Bea as his bride, and Tip must save her from eternal darkness before All Hallows' Eve. In the race to capture the heart of one daring lady, it's every man - and ghost - for himself.

Contains mature themes.

I went in thinking this would be a gothic romance but it was surprisingly farcical. The characters were diverse albeit mostly unlikeable, and the plot whilst interesting would’ve benefited from further development. This had the potential to be so much more, but wasn’t. Perhaps if Bea’s behaviour towards Tip wasn’t so doggedly contrary to her thoughts and feelings for him for almost the entirety of the book, my frustration (and eye-rolling) wouldn’t have persisted for almost the entirety of the book. I struggled to finish despite the excellent narration.

Bea’s penny took a loooong time to drop.

I’m not sure how I got through this one, possibly because Justine Eyre is one of my preferred narrators. The story was just silly.

Just a bit too silly
