Scarlett's Secret

From the author of the beloved LONE PALM series comes an entertaining love story that blends the past with the present, and exposes the shocking truth behind a legend two hundred years in the making.

Scarlett Robinson’s life is far from normal. Since early childhood she has been haunted by spirits attempting to communicate with their loved ones through her extraordinary gift to see and hear the dead—a gift that has had disastrous effects on her social life. Hoping that her freshman year at the College of Charleston will provide the perfect opportunity to begin anew, Scarlett does her best to fit in. And she almost does--that is, until she is forced to conduct a seance at a frat party, where she accidentally conjures the spirit of Lavinia Fisher, America's first female serial killer.

Lavinia is one pissed-off ghost, and won’t be satisfied until she wreaks havoc on Charleston, the city of her hanging. Only one person holds the key to putting an end to her rampage: Scarlett’s new love interest, Joey Matthews. But will Scarlett jeopardize their budding relationship by revealing her secret gift to him? She’ll have to decide fast, because there’s another, more ominous threat looming ahead. One more frightening than any ghost. One that could send Scarlett and Joey both to an early grave if they’re not careful
