The Ghosts of Rue Dumaine cover



Synopsis: 
Ready to get her life back on track after ending a painful marriage, Danica Giles returns to the Creole cottage where she grew up in the New Orleans French Quarter. Danica is anxious to rekindle her friendship with a former resident from her old neighborhood, the seductive Gaston Deslonde. But Gaston isn’t exactly a normal guy. The charming man has been dead for over a hundred and fifty years, and the childish crush 
Danica once had on her ghostly playmate quickly turns into something much deeper. When a handsome new man enters Danica’s life, Gaston vows to do whatever he can to hold on to her. Danica soon discovers that the most forbidden of all desires cannot be satisfied without paying a grave price. Love can blur the lines between life and death when you are living among the ghosts of Rue Dumaine.



Review:

When I get a book from Alex, I always have the same condendrum- read it now, knowing I will HAVE to read it in one sitting OR hold it for a couple of days, and build up the anticipation. Decisions, decisions, decisions...In this case, I couldn't wait and tore through it the same day! granted this put me finishing it at 1 am, but it was SO SO worth it! Alex never, ever disappoints with her pararomance chick lit novels!

Yeah , yeah, yeah, I know, pararomance chick lit. There I said it again,. Sigh. I know.

BUT once you read one of Alex's books, you will totally understand and get why you just can not put them down! These books are NOT Twilight books for teens. The characters are so well done, they could be people you know in your own lives, and the story keeps you on the edge of seat, turning pages to see what will happen to the characters!  As always the tale is full of NOLA lore and history, places and nuances- all of which makes Alex's books filled with amazing back stories and backgrounds. 

This story MAY make you rethink your child's imaginary friend! 
And running to get the rest of Alex's books!
Don't miss this wonderful book!
