This was delightful, she is determined to keep the life she has carved for herself despite her shyness and abrupt manner. He wants his family home back again and if she is part of the bargain then he's willing to go with it.

I loved this slow burn romance and the fake ghosts and altogether it was a lovely read with some great characters. Now I want to read the rest of the series. (

I liked the premise of the book (she's going to take control of her life), and I liked the characters. This is a pretty decent marriage of convenience story. The haunting of the house, while an interesting idea, was the only part of the book that didn't work for me. He doesn't believe in ghosts, so it shouldn't have taken him quite so long to figure out what was going on. (

A quiet romance with a haunted twist.

The two main characters are married for reasons of necessity and then go off to the Viscount's country estate. They are sequestered in the country with only the estate's staff so the story is very focused on their relationship until the Viscount's friends come to visit about 2/3 of the way in.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced reader copy of this! No review was required and all thoughts are my own. (
