When the Magnolia Blooms (Irish Enchantment Book 2)

Fiona O’Flaherty’s quiet California life is turned upside down when a killer cop starts stalking her. With the help of the Four Amigos—a group of retired law enforcement officers—she changes her identity and flees to a farm in rural Virginia. Much to her surprise her new roommate is a charming ghost who died in 1865. Even more amazing is the fact that Danann Farm is a mystical Irish village that was transported to America in the early part of the nineteenth century. As a nurse she’s used to multi-tasking, but now she’s falling in love with a handsome spirit while also managing the restoration of a historic home. Not to forget that a serial killer is determined to kill her. What next? How about a pint-sized seer with special powers, a group of geriatric aunties managing the rumor mill, and an extended family ready, willing and able to protect the new mistress of the Magnolia House. Fiona’s having quite an adventure, but like most magical tales this story will have a happy, if somewhat quirky ending.

About the Author

The fun part of being an author is that I can have conversations with my imaginary friends without anyone batting an eyelash. I've published eleven novels and one novella with various Harlequin imprints and now I'm venturing into the genre of Magical Realism. Believe is my first visit to that mystical place where wee ghosts go bump in the night and the surreal becomes reality. When the Magnolia Blooms is the second book in my Enchantment Series, and the ghost in that story is not only handsome, he's very charismatic. On the fun side of life--I'm addicted to hot chocolate and I love everything sparkly. Laughter is the sunshine of the soul.
