“Has all the elements of a good British mystery and a ghost story combined. A jolly good story!” ~Inside Romance Quinn Rutledge has been hired to remodel historic Hartley Hall into a 5-star hotel. Ian Matthews, a Special Forces officer in the Queen’s Protection service, is vetting the hall’s security for a secret international meeting, and presents himself to Quinn as a corporate officer … Quinn as a corporate officer checking on her progress.
All seems simple enough, until the pair uncover a crazed band of terrorists, a destructive ghost with an odd sense of humor, and an inconvenient attraction to each other.
Neither have time for love, and Ian is the embodiment of everything that went wrong with Quinn’s first marriage. But Love doesn’t care.

A really good and funny romance.
This romance about Ian and Quinn is so funny and hot and good! I was laughing out loud at “Mary’s” antics and the reactions to them. And the pure romance that brewed between Ian and Quinn was just as good. And how could I not mention Alistair and Copenhagen? This was truly an ensemble story that worked beautifully and effectively.
This is definitely one book I will be re-reading over and over again.

The fifth book in the Korbel Classic Romance Humorous Series, a book I could not stop laughing through. I would recommend this book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Ian is undercover investigating a terrorist plot at Heritage House and Quinn has been hired to restore it. There is an immediate attraction between them, but Quinn discovers who he really is and what he’s been hiding from her and she doesn’t know if she can get past that. They also have to deal with pranks from the ghost Mary who is haunting the house, Ian recovering from recent leg surgery, and his bout with malaria. Plenty of humor and drama in this paranormal romance.

This is a fun and witty romance laced with drama, history and a ghost. This was written in 1991 and holds up well to today’s thoughts of the past. As with all of this author’s books, this has a wonderful plot, great characters and a good amount of witty humor. I would love to read all of this author’s books. I received this ARC book for free and this is my honest review.
Quinn and Ian’s book is full of drama, excitement, action, humor, suspense, great chemistry and romance. This is a very enjoyable read that was fun and very engaging.
