This is a cute, fun romp of a book. I know that this genre is called chic lit, but I really think that romantic comedy would fit as well. I loved that it had this paranormal aspect to it but it wasn't a paranormal romance. Even though ghosts were involved it was never really dark or scary. It was just a fun read and I think that's important to remember when going in to this book. Yeah, there are a lot of cliches and you probably know how it ends, but isn't that half the fun?

This was great. Fun, short, and there were ghosts. So spooky.
Boston and Shelby were hot a heavy. Admittedly, most of the fire in their romance was chemistry over actual interest. It was kind of confusing how they got to the love part. But they did and it was cute.
I gotta say it’s not really my vibe when the woman is all “I’m not skinny and blonde.” Like so what. Your insecurity is showing. It’s especially bothersome when she’s portrayed as someone who should come across as so comfortable with herself. And then she’s suddenly thinking about how she dresses poorly. Like why.
I loved Boston’s character development though. And the supporting characters were cute and added a lot of flavor to the book. Even the ghosts.

Cuttersville - Ohio's most haunted town.
It was fun and I loved the supporting characters. Especially the ghost cow ;)
What I liked most about this story was the the heroine wasn't a bitter first-wife. I loved that Shelby and Danny had a good relationship and that they can be friends. There are so many stories about the women being resentful and hostile but this was not the case in this story. It really nice to see it.

Very cute and easy to read. I enjoyed the characters, especially the grandmother. I liked that some supernatural was thrown in to the mix in a humorous way. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a cute, lighthearted romance that will make you occasionally giggle.

Shelby is a hometown girls that lives int he most haunted town in Ohio. Boston is a big time city boy who is all about his career and bity conveniences.
Boston gets sent to Ohio and runs into Shelby givng a ghost tour. Sparks fly for both of them and the ghosts are on the side of love -- making sure the two of them get lots of time together.
Endearing story of 2 opposites attracting and both overcoming fears. Erin spun a beautiful story.
Sexy and Romantic in a hometown kind of way.

Shelby Tucker has always just gone with the flow, she married young and divorced her high school sweetheart, not because they fought or disliked one another, he just wasn't it. Shelby has never expected more than what life has to offer and one of those is giving ghost tours to tourists.
Boston Macnamara doesn't know why his boss sent him to Cuttersville, but he is not happy about it. Point in fact waking up nude to have a pixie of a woman checking out his goods and talking in crypted speak that he can't wrap his head around. What he does know though is he would like to get closer to Shelby but with no commitment. Shelby wants a fling, but she maybe a little to hometown girl to allow it to happen.
The story is hilarious in the beginning, has a great opening chapter. It is fun and quirky but towards the end loses a little of it's charm. Overall a good story

Erin McCarthy is a hoot. SOP for her books is lots of humor, memorable characters, and quirky attitudes.
