GHOST OF A CHANCE BY BL MAXWELL: BOOK REVIEW

 BLURB

James McKinney has always lived life alone. He doesn’t have a family, at least none that he remembers. He’s always dreamed of having a house of his own, a place he can call home. Finding the right house, ready to work to make it his home, nothing can put a damper on his happiness, or can it?

Trey Andral, returning home from college, notices someone moving into his old friend’s house next door. Miss Hattie is still waving to him from the bedroom window, even though he knows she’s gone. He also knows he can’t not help the new guy make the house his own.

Trey has always been able to see and hear sprits, but what’s normal to him is terrifying to most others. When the spirits seem intent on contacting James, Trey has no choice but to share his secret, risking their friendship. If they work together, maybe they can figure out what the clues the spirits are giving them mean. And maybe they can find family in each other.

REVIEW

Trey is a medium who has the ability to see spirits, and he has been seeing them his whole life. Take Miss Hattie next door for instance, she no longer exists in the world of the living, but he can see her waving at him from her window.

When he comes home from college to find a new neighbor moving in next door he knows the least he can do is to help him out and make him feel at home.

James has always longed to find somewhere to belong. Now he has the opportunity to settle down and finally get a place where he can call home.

Trey just wants to help James move in and and offers to aid with the cleaning. But when he starts hearing strange noises, and discovers a ghost bent on driving the new neighbor away from his home, he knows he has to intervene. When he and James team up to solve the mystery, they stumble upon secrets buried deep inside the walls of the house.

As they begin spending more time with eachother, their newly found friendship blossoms into something more. Will Trey have the courage to tell James about his secret? Will they uncover the reason for the recent hauntings?

This was such a sweet friends to lovers, May December romance with an interesting mystery thrown into the mix. The mystery behind the hauntings made this all the more engaging and compelling to read.

I loved how welcoming and warm Trey's family was to James. Miss Hattie was such an adorable secondary character. I also liked the nagging presence of the other ghosts. It added a nice touch to the storyline.

I absolutely recommend this if you are looking for a sweet paranormal romance which is low on the angst and high on the fluff.
