"Amy Goodnight knows that the world isn't as simple as it seems—she grew up surrounded by household spells and benevolent ghosts. But she also understands that "normal" doesn't mix with magic, and she's worked hard to build a wall between the two worlds. Not only to protect any hope of ever having a normal life.Ranch-sitting for her aunt in Texas should be exactly that. Good old ordinary, uneventful hard work. Only, Amy and her sister, Phin, aren't alone. There's someone in the house with them—and it's not the living, breathing, amazingly hot cowboy from the ranch next door.
It's a ghost, and it's more powerful than the Goodnights and all their protective spells combined. It wants something from Amy, and none of her carefully built defenses can hold it back.
This is the summer when the wall between Amy's worlds is going to come crashing down."
I picked this up on a whim because the title intrigued me. I'm glad I did because I thoroughly enjoyed the story! I'm always a big fan of anything that has ghosts or witches and when you pair both together, it's a definite recipe for success! Not only was the story fast paced but I really enjoyed the quirky characters as well. I kept forgetting that many of them were in their teens because they definitely didn't act like teenagers. The ending was absolutely not what I was expecting. I kept wondering how it would all wrap up and I must say the end felt abit Nancy Drew-ish but at least the book had the good sense to mention and admit it, which I applaud.
Age 13+. Mild flirting and the ghosts aren't scary.
