The last man Cass Whitley wants beside her is the one she's starting to fall for.
Cass is determined to make Harbor's Hope's autumn festival a success. Leading the lantern route is her chance to prove herself, and she has plans for every turn. None of them include working with Detective Jeff Harker, the man who failed to believe her when she needed him most. She can handle a busy festival. Trusting Jeff again is another matter.
Jeff knows he owes Cass more than an apology. Helping with Hauntfest gives him a chance to listen, earn her trust, and spend time with the woman he hasn't stopped thinking about. If only their conversations didn't keep turning into arguments he almost enjoys. This time, he intends to take her concerns seriously and show her she can count on him.
Between lantern walks and masquerade preparations at Evergreen Tide Resort, Cass begins to discover a man she wants to know beyond his badge. Shared work leaves room for laughter, unexpected kindness, and an attraction that makes keeping her distance increasingly difficult. But enjoying his company doesn't mean she's forgotten how much his dismissal hurt.
Then strange happenings at an old boathouse draw them into a family story that reaches closer to home than she expected. As they unravel the truth behind a local legend, Cass and Jeff have another chance to work together-and another reason to decide what they believe about each other.
With the festival approaching and her heart getting involved, Cass must decide whether she can trust Jeff with more than her safety. This time, he has to give her a reason to say yes.
Hauntfest at Harbor's Hope is a clean, small-town coastal romance with autumn charm, playful banter, sweet kisses, a touch of mystery, and a happy ending. Book Two in the A Coastal Fresh Start Romance series, it can also be enjoyed as a standalone.
