I'm not normally a romance enthusiast so I bought this book solely because of the ghost/mystery element.  I have to say it was a thoroughly good read, especially when written from the ghost's perspective in places.  I came to love the characters and the story was well thought-out and well written.Jennifer inherits a house with, unbeknown to her, a miserable curmugeonly reclusive tenant who has resided for decades within, having scared off those he feels have no business in his property.  That is until Jennifer turns up and therein lies a mystery between this new arrival and a picture painted seemingly of the same woman, but a century ago.Yes there were some anomolies (How does he smoke the tobacco she leaves for him? How are they able to touch?) but the tale is so compelling you tend to forgive the author.  If I have a gripe at all it is that the ending did leave more questions than answers; it might be fairer to say it didn't end the way I expected it to. Having said that though, it was extremely enjoyable!
