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 who's caught Roz's 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.
