Jaded travel columnist Nathaniel Graves has spent his career debunking rumored “haunted” locations. He swore never to believe in a world where the supernatural could exist on the night a tragic mistake resulted in the death of his family. Assigned to cover Newport, Rhode Island’s Haunted Happenings festival for a prestigious travel magazine, he expects another gimmicky tourist trap. Instead, he finds himself trapped between ghosts of the past and the undeniable pull of the woman forcing him to question everything. 

Free-spirt Mia Sousa is a goth-clad English major with an obsession for the macabre. Employed by the Newport Ladies Refurbishment Society she guides historical haunted tours at the notorious Bellalenore Castle. Chosen to chaperon Nathaniel through a weekend of ghost hunts, séances, and eerie masquerades, Mia challenges Nathaniel’s rigid disbelief.
