A Whisper of Magic
A paranormal historical romance short story
Superstitious, romantic Liney Halliday decides to find a husband after caregiving postponed her dreams of having a family of her own. She can think of no better setting than the local Samhain festival. But her plans go awry when an unseen presence literally puts her in the path of longtime friend Owen Fitzgerald, the Earl of Roxbury.
​
The serious-minded, reticent earl hardly seems like the boy of Liney’s youth and nothing like the young man she half fell in love with as a sixteen-year-old. There is no way the earl would desire her as a wife, except out of obligation. And there is no way Liney will settle for an ill-suited match.
​
A meddlesome, matchmaking ghost has other ideas and one night to show them that unexpected love is their destiny.
​
A short story in the "Spirit of Love" Halloween Anthology.
