Description

Alexie Aaron has given us a motley crew of ghost hunters and a wide cast of supernatural beings fighting the good fight against evil in her popular thirty-book *Haunted Series* and its companion series *Cid Garrett P.I.*. This time she has tackled a love story set in an enchanted bookshop. Chicago’s enchanted secondhand bookshop owner Nash Greene has been given a second chance at life. He never imagined that he’d also be given a second chance on love with Chef Clara Tyler. Their leap from friendship to lovers was magical enough without the interference of the books on the second floor. Each move the couple makes seems to be punctuated in the pages of the well-loved novels of the last few centuries. Books are powerful things. They can bring on emotions and encourage the timid heart to accept love. Some books are written to take the reader into a world that only the brave dare to tread. Unfortunately, there are books that are created not to entertain, amuse, or nurture. These are life-snatching books. One is taking out the members of Wendell Baumbach’s evening book club at an alarming rate. Within the city is a society called the Order of Scrolls created after the great fire in Alexandria to save books for humanity but, when called upon, will act to save humanity from books. The Order of Scrolls summons their knights to fight to save Chicago from a very dangerous book. Join Nash, Clara, and the secret Order of Scrolls in their quest to find the life-snatching book and destroy it before it destroys them. This is a stand-alone book.
