Where love blossoms but dreams collide.
Lia's father inherits a transplanted Irish castle in the idyllic Pacific Northwest. Pausing her plans to open a dessert café with a friend in California, she commits to spend the summer helping her family with renovations. She discovers the estate comes with two unexpected surprises: a restless ghost-and her old crush, Coop, the handsome groundskeeper. Lia finds herself tangled in a web of old affections, especially when Coop sets out to untangle her knotted heart. But he is as committed to the estate as the resident ghost, while her long-held plans are waiting for her hundreds of miles away. Fearing the specter's escalating activities could derail events at the castle, Lia and Coop must unearth what keeps him bound to the estate. All while facing a heart-wrenching decision: pursue separate futures or stake their cherished dreams against a love that only promises a new beginning. This clean romance delves into the very essence of second chances-both for a family adjusting to their quirky new residence and a spirit grappling with eternal rest.Wildstone books:
