Synopsis: Harry Ackerson has always considered his step-mother Alice to be sexy and beautiful, in an “other worldly” way. She has always been kind and attentive, if a little aloof in the last few years.

Days before his college graduation, Alice calls with shocking news. His father is dead and the police think it’s suicide. Devastated, he returns to his father’s home in Maine. There, he and Alice will help one another pick up of the pieces of their lives and uncover what happened to his father.

Shortly after he arrives, Harry meets a mysterious young woman named Grace McGowan. Though she claims to be new to the area, Harry begins to suspect that Grace may not be a complete stranger to his family. But she isn’t the only attractive woman taking an interest in Harry. The sensual Alice is also growing closer, coming on to him in an enticing, clearly sexual way.

Mesmerized by these two women, Harry finds himself falling deeper under their spell. Yet the closer he gets to them, the more isolated he feels, disoriented by a growing fear that both women are hiding dangerous—even deadly—secrets . . . and that neither one is telling the truth.

Spookathon Wrap-up

Hey guys! So I am excited to announce that I ended up participating in Spookathon last week. I honestly didn’t think I was going to. I have been in a bit of a slump as of late. I haven’t been reading as much. I ended up finishing a book on the second day and then picked up another one so I thought I would try to pick books that fit the prompts. So I’m really happy that I ended up making it work. Spookathon is one of my favorite readathons so I was happy this ended up working out. So let’s dive in to see what I read.

Spookathon TBR

Hey guys I am so excited to announce that I will be participating in the 2018 Spookathon. I took part in this last year and ended up having so much fun with it. So I am excited to do it again this year.

If you don’t know Spookathon was started by Lala from BooksandLala. I have linked the video to her announcement video. It is running from October 15th to October 21st. There will also be a buddy read which is Toil and Trouble By Tess Sharpe. Thankfully my hold just came in from the library so I will be partaking in that. So let’s dive in to my TBR for this readathon!

Spookathon 2017

Hey everyone. I’m sorry for barely posting last week. I was feeling really drained so I ended up only writing one post. 😦  In the last week I decided to take part in Spookathon. Spookathon is a week long readathon that went from October 16th to October 22. It’s hosted by Lala, Paige, and Shannon. They started it last year. I am so happy I decided to participate this year! Now let’s hear how it went!
