Book Description:
From the Publisher - With all the magic thats made her a #1 bestselling author, Nora Roberts delivers a new dose of passion in this second novel of her spellbinding paranomal trilogy.
Roz Harper, owner of the renowned nursery In the Garden, resides in her centuries-old mansion with an unearthly apparition known as the Harper Bride. Roz knows the ghost can be unpredictable, which is why she hires Dr. Mitchell Carnagie to uncover her story.
Not only is Mitchell a clever and intelligent genealogist, hes also a sexy head-turner whos caught Rozs eye on more than one occasion. A disruptive scene six months earlier finally prompted Roz to employ the handsome professional to learn the identity of her ghostly ancestor. Longing to understand why her home is haunted, Roz also yearns to feel Mitchells lips on hers. For his very presence disturbs her almost as much as that of the ghost. But the moment Roz surrenders to the handsome genealogists embrace, the Bride wants only to lash out at the one woman who seeks to help her rest in peace. Explicit sex.

Lizabeth L. (My Boss gave me this book, she had bought at a sale. She knew that I love Nora Roberts. Since it was the second in a trilogy and I am a vivid Nora reader I knew I had to read the first book " Blue Dahilia" then "Black Rose" and ending with" Red Lily" Great read thru and thru..
I'm about half way through this book and am LOVING it!!! Nora Roberts is an excellent author!
Lisa M. (Another really great book by Nora Roberts

"Nora Roberts at her best"
In Memphis, forty-five year old Rosalind "Roz" Harper for the most part feels good about life mostly because of the young that has brought her family home Harper House back to life. Her "son" David takes good care of the estate. Her In the Garden's nursery manager Stella Rothchild does likewise although the mother of two young sons will probably leave once she weds her beloved Logan. Finally her beloved employee Hayley Philips has a delightful newborn who makes Roz feel like an indulgent grandmother.
The two flaws in Roz optimistic outlook are the return of her sponge of an ex husband Bryce Clerk doing what he does best trying to live off someone else with Roz his target and the mystery of the Harper Bride ghost. The former is a question of ignoring him though Bryce keeps pushing; the latter is to much a presence to pretend she is not there so Roz hires genealogist Dr. Mitch Carnegie to look into her past. Mitch quickly becomes a ghost believer even as he falls in love with his reluctant client, who ponders a second chance after the failure of her first attempt at marriage.
This paranormal family drama is a Nora that can stand alone but reading the previous novel, BLUE DAHLIA, enhances the experience as the audience will have a taste how far the Harper "extended" family including ghosts has come. The ensemble cast seems genuine and clues to the mystery of the ghost augment the novel. Nora Roberts is at her best with the first two novels of the Garden trilogy leaving readers to anticipate quite a finish to the miniseries.
Summer B. (Book 2 of the In the Garden Trilogy. Loved it.
