I loved this book!

Mrs. Rochester's Ghost
by Lindsay Marcott

book cover


I chose this book because it was free on Amazon Prime Reading. It was pretty good. Jane has lost pretty much everything, her friend Otis offers her a job tutoring his boss's daughter at a beautiful cottage with a fantastic view. Evan Rochester has been accused of murdering his wife. Will Jane be able to feel comfortable with him and his daughter? Jane hears things at night! Is it the Ghost of Evan's wife? It was an interesting read, not my typical type of read but good nonetheless.

Third book in the Rock Harbor series. Continue loving the characters and the lives they have entwined me into. I feel like I know the characters and care about what happens in their lives. In this book, Bree's dog Samson gets kidnapped and she tries to find him using the other dogs she is training. She doesn't give up and uses prayer and support of her family to help her get through this tough time.

Fun summer read! Quick read and love that it takes place in NYC and Westchester County. Also a story line very much in the news concerning college admissions with a different twist. Her characters are always so true to life and always get a good laugh from her stories!

Someone breaks into her lighthouse and is searching for something. She and her dog Sampson need to protect her son and find out what they are looking for.
