When Harper inherits a haunted house with strings attached, she doesn’t expect one of those strings to be a devastatingly attractive paranormal researcher determined to prove her ghosts are fake.

Harper Jones thought inheriting her aunt’s Victorian mansion in Phantom Creek, Connecticut, would solve her problems. Instead, she gets: one matchmaking jazz-age ghost, a house that won’t let her leave for five weeks, and Dr. Jack Crawford-a skeptical professor who thinks she’s either delusional or running an elaborate con.

Jack’s academic career died with his last debunked investigation. This haunted house is his shot at redemption, and he won’t let a beautiful con artist with genuine-seeming tears and an impossibly charming smile derail his research. Even if working in close quarters makes it hard to remember why touching her is a terrible idea.

But as strange occurrences escalate and Halloween approaches, Harper and Jack must set aside their differences to uncover the truth behind the haunting-before whatever is in that house destroys the entire town. Falling in love wasn’t part of the plan. Neither was the viral video that turns their investigation into a social media nightmare.

Now they have until Halloween to solve the mystery, save the town, and decide if what they feel is real-or just the house playing matchmaker.

Because in Phantom Creek, even the dead believe in happily ever after.
