"Charmed meets Ghost Hunters in this magically wicked paranormal romance, perfect for fans of Not the Witch You Wed and The Ex Hex. There have always been rumors that something magical is afoot at Wicked Good Apples. Rain during droughts and other inexplicable happenings have long haunted the Maine orchard, but only Holly Celeste and her family know the truth: the Celestes are just a little wicked. Despite the magical secret ingredient in their cider, the family business is floundering. When Connor Grimm, a charming and nationally beloved paranormal investigator, requests to film an episode of his popular TV show on the mysterious farm, Holly reluctantly accepts. She knows the publicity could be the miracle her family needs - as long a...s Connor doesn't manage to actually make any paranormal discoveries while he's there. Intent on keeping Connor in the dark and pushing him toward the ghost story believed by the locals, Holly joins him as he interviews eyewitnesses, hunts for old records, and unearths potentially devastating stories from the past. Despite her resolution to dislike him, she begins to fall for the only man who's ever made her feel like strange could be normal. As Connor gets closer to uncovering the real secrets behind the orchard, his and Holly's blooming romance begins to threaten everything they value - Connor's committment to his career and Holly's committment to her family. Wicked as a love spell, this witchy romance will enchant readers of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches and In Charm's Way." -- Jacket flap.

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

In this cozy, magical love story, Lovise (Never Blow a Kiss) balances romance and spookiness. For generations, the women of the Celeste family have run Wicked Good Apples, producing amazing cider from their private orchard in Maine without ever revealing that much of their success hinges upon their hidden magical abilities. But for the past few years, business has been dropping, partly because of their low profile and partly because of the ghost supposedly haunting the orchard. In a last-ditch effort to avoid selling the business, Holly Celeste reluctantly allows Connor Grimm, host of the ghost-hunting reality show Grimm Reality, to film an episode about the orchard. Now Holly has to keep Connor from learning the truth about her family's witchy history and fantastic abilities. Together, they slowly unravel the tragedy behind the orchard's beginnings, even as they fall for each other. But Holly will never abandon her family business, and Connor is bound to leave for another job soon. Will their relationship survive? Holly and Connor's chemistry is undeniable and the supernatural elements, while initially subtle, ramp up deliciously as the story goes on. Colorful supporting characters--including the rest of the Celeste family--bring the setting to life. This is perfect for an autumn night. (Sept.)
