About this audiobook
The New York Times bestselling author Jude Deveraux brings a “wonderful addition” (Booklist) to her Montgomery/Taggert Family series with this supernatural romance in which, with the help of a feisty ghost, a man uncovers the secrets that led to the tragic death of his fiancée.
After three years, Jace Montgomery is still grieving over his fiancée Stacy’s mysterious suicide. He hasn’t been interested in another woman since her passing, and her family still blames him for her death.
While flipping through one of her old paperbacks, Jace discovers a photo of a house stuck between the pages, bearing the cryptic message: “Ours again. Together forever. See you there.” The note was dated the day before her death. Obsessed by the possibility of understanding her suicide, Jace seeks out the property—Priory House, a big brick fortress in Margate, England—and buys it.
It doesn’t take long to learn that the house is haunted by a headstrong and feisty ghost, Ann Stuart, whom he must tangle with if he’s ever to solve the mystery. Ann died under circumstances similar to those of his late fiancée, and he has a hunch that there is a connection between the two. Through his own investigations and with the help of a beautiful foreign correspondent, Jace is forced to reconcile his fiancée’s life and her death. What follows is a satisfying and seductive discovery of both time and love by one of America’s favorite storytellers.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I actually really enjoyed this book until the tunnel collapsed. Then it seemed like Jude was in a hurry to finish and the story lost my interest. It's unfortunate - I really thought this one was going to be a keeper.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good read. I enjoyed this book. I really dont think i have read one of Jude's that i didnt like. This one had a great story that made me feel so sad for Jace. Full of crazy happenings, ghosts and mystery with a touch of romance at the end. It was very entertaining.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5much better than the usual paperback romance deveraux usually produces. i greatly enjoyed the romantic mystery/ghost story. high rating because it was impressively good for the genre, not because it's great literature.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This was a fun, light book. I don't feel it was her best work, it was predictable and a little slow starting. I wouldn't put this is the "don't miss it" category, but I would say to read it if you come across it.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I love Jude Deveraux and while this book was still worth reading I was disappointed by the ending.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Still grieving three years after his fiancee's mysterious suicide, Jace Montgomery discovers a clue about her death that leads him to purchase an English mansion, where he encounters a headstrong ghost who died under similar circumstances. This was humorous and entertaining...a little bit of everything including mystery, romance and ghosts!
