Ghosts, romance, a setting on an island off the coast of Maine – how could I resist reading this novella-length book, Ghosts of Kingston Cottage, by Libby Bishop. I couldn’t. It’s a perfect pre-Halloween read, but to be frank, although spooky, the romance between the ghosts and the paranormal investigator (medium) and skeptical reporter really is the focus of this story.
I can only commend Bishop as this story is engrossing. From the paranormal investigation agency that we want to hear more about, to the three friends who grew up in the small Maine coastal town, to the possible romance, if Arabella can learn to trust again. Wow, all this accomplished in under 100 pages. That to me is a very talented author and definitely worth a read.
The details are fun – ghost hunters are always fascinating aren’t they? And if you turn down the lights, put on a little spooky music, and read this by candlelight and the light of your e-reader – you have the perfect Halloween haunt.

She believes in ghosts
Medium and paranormal investigator Arabella Pierce is sent with her crew to Kingston Cottage, a haunted Maine seafarer’s cottage on an isolated island, but for this investigation, her boss has stuck them with skeptical reporter Lucas Brown. Though he’s hot as they come, Arabella can’t trust a man whose sole job is to discredit her and the work she does. Not after what happened with the last few skeptics…
He believes in evidence.
But Lucas isn’t as skeptical as he seems—he wants the truth, no matter what that is. When the ghosts appear, he and Arabella must work together—in tight quarters—to convince the resident ghosts to move on before a storm strands the entire crew on the island. If Arabella can put aside her prejudices, she and Lucas just might have a shot at a lifetime.
