KA does it again, she has written a wonderful love story. Which is set in St. Ives in Cornwall. Belle Abbot is an extremely shy woman, she has a back story that is unenviable. She first meets James"Jack"Bennett, at a party given in his castle, she is there with Jack's brother Miles. Although she had already come to the decision that her and Miles are not going to work. Belle doesn't cope well in large groups of people so escapes to a room which she believes is empty. But to her dismay it is not. Surprised that she has company, none other than the owner himself Jack, he offers her a tour of his home. One thing leads to another and they end up in Jack's bedroom. Belle cannot quite believe her own behaviour, as this is totally out of character for her. The following morning Belle overhears a conversation about herself and Jack. Causing her to flee. But circumstances soon bring her back into Jack's world all too soon.This is a lovely romance between two very likeable characters. KA never ceases to amaze me how she manages to get the feel of her stories just right. Whether it be her crime series, or mystery man stories, or here in her supernatural themed romance. This draws the reader in from the very first page, it builds slowly to a high drama finish. There are a wonderful supporting cast as well, including Belle's crazy parents, her domineering Grandmother, plus the welcome return of Angus the ghost hunter and Cassandra the witch, and the ghosts which play a large part here as well. But the two leads definitely steal the show, I loved Jack, yes he is the usual bossy alpha male but he is kind and generous as well. I loved the way he coaxed Belle out of her shell. With very passionate and tender love scenes this is a perfect read.
