by Karen White
My local library has The House on Tradd Street shelved under romance, but I don't really think that this book fits into that genre very well. Sure, there is a mutual attraction and sexual tension between the two main characters, and there is a bit of a love triangle that goes on (I'm not much of a ...
I love a great mystery, love story and a few ghosts thrown in. This is a great read.
I had a love/hate relationship with this book. Loved the Charleston setting and the ghosts, but hated the childish personality of the main character.
The story itself I might have enjoyed, but the main characters and their character arc are one which I really don't enjoy.

The broken pediments... And there are immediate intima...
Even though Melanie Middleton is a real estate agent specializing in old houses- she hates them, and much prefers the stripped down and modern look that she sports in her own austere condo. She has good reason to be wary, though she is loath to admit it to herself, Melanie sees ghosts- and we all k...
Melanie is a 39 year old realtor who inherits an old southern mansion, but can see dead people. Yea, but don't give up on the book yet! Somehow the author made it work and made it believable. Melanie begins to renovate the old house when Jack, the hunky guy enters the scene doing research for his n...
