Lezersrecensie
The perfect Halloween read!
«Heartthrobs & Hauntings» is a spooky rom-com to a T! With this one, Christine delivered a genuinely eerie story laced with a touch of romance. Instead of overshadowing the supernatural aspect, it adds just enough tension to create the perfect balance.
The protagonists, Jessica & Dan, are charming & I don’t mean to take away their shine, but the true stars running the show here are definitely the ghosts — Beauty, Widow & Baby. Thanks to Christine’s knack for detail, the different backgrounds from this quirky, hilarious trio made the flashbacks vividly real & heartbreakingly human.
The chemistry between Jessica & Dan was kept simmering in the background after initially meeting each other, leaving more than enough room for the numerous mysteries to unfold. The pacing is spot-on, revealing the castle’s haunted history & the backgrounds of the ghosts little by little. One thing that took me by surprise though was the fantastic plot twist revealing the true culprit behind the castle’s murders - an unexpected turn of events & brilliantly executed at that!
Overall, this is an amazing Halloween read — full of cozy vibes in a spooky-romantic setting with a happy ending. This is my third time reading Christine’s work & she never disappoints! Perfect for a fall evening, this book is a true treat for spooky rom-com fans!
