Can Melanie’s Halloween bash survive Leah’s ghostly tricks? Melanie Fyre is a passionate teacher determined to raise funds for the town’s school. What better way to do it than by expanding the local businesses? All she needs is land. Untouched for years thanks to a local superstition, the Crowe property is perfect. If Melanie can debunk the myth, she can get the use of those 600 beautiful acres. She just has to prove to the town that Leah’s ghost is not haunting the mansion, even on Samhain night. Burned to death and proclaimed a witch, Leah Crowe’s soul has been cursed to an eternity of loneliness, all because she dared to love a woman. When the saucy Melanie arrives at her home to throw a costume party that mocks Leah’s very existence, the bitter ghost resolves to renew the town’s fear of her name. Will Leah’s ghost ruin all of Melanie’s plans?
REVIEW:
This was a too short, but entertaining, lesbian ghost story. Leah Crowe was burned alive for being a witch when her female lover was accidently killed 200 years ago. The villagers thought she had used witchcraft to tempt the young woman, Valerie, into a life of sin. Since then she has been tormented by relieving that day every time she leaves her former home. On one night every year, Samhain, she is able to interact with the living, not there are many hanging around a haunted mansion!
200 years later, a sexy woman in a skin tight Cat Woman outfit draws her attention. Melanie Frye is hosting a scary Halloween party to prove to the town that there is no ghost in the Crowe Mansion. What will happen when Leah actually shows up? Especially when they are attracted to each other?
I enjoyed the story, but it was too short by far for my reading tastes. I would love to see it as a book with a lot more detail added. If it had a couple hundred more pages, it would be perfect! What happened in those 40 years that were glossed over? Inquiring minds want to know!
