A manor filled with secrets is Brand’s last hope for recovery, and maybe love.
After a yearlong battle with declining health, Brand is offered the opportunity to live and work building a small home community in Upstate New York, and reconnecting with his best friend. But Brand is a long way from recovered and doesn’t know if he’ll actually be able to do the job.
Law thought he escaped small town life, and was on the verge of adding to his list of rehab skills when everything shut down. Now he’s in limbo, unable to work with suspended certificates, and back home with a family curse he’d like to keep secret.
Brand needs more than just a physical therapist. And Law is looking for a place to belong. When the truth is revealed, can the two of them find love, despite the mysteries and curses that plague their past?

What I liked: The story was cute. I instantly fell for the characters and was really into the magical world building. The author piqued my interest early on with the “monster in the lake” and then kept it as I tried to figure out who that monster was.
There was also a nice tie in with her other two books which I haven’t read. I don’t think that kept me from grasping the story line though, which is a HUGE plus for the third book in a series.
What I didn’t like: There is very little I hate more than a book that I’m really enjoying but doesn’t accurately state or portray important facts. In this case, the author needed to do more research on long COVID and COVID survivors. Granted, I’m married to an ER nurse so I might have more information than the average reader, but I do think with just a bit more research the author could’ve avoided inaccurate information about the MC’s illness and recovery.
Summary: I’m rating this book a 3.5 stars. All in all, I liked it and I’d have given it a 4.5 stars if the MC’s illness had been better researched and portrayed, but if the reader can look past that, it’s a very fun book to read and worth the effort.
