I'm not the biggest fan of paranormal romance--but the premise of this charming romance sucked me in, and I had to read it!  The main female character, Harriet, is a charming, quirky, hot mess.  But even though life took her on a winding path, she is doing what she loves by owning and curating an antiques shop.  Then she is haunted by Ghost of Christmas Past, Nolan Callahan, the main male character.  I loved the references to spirits and ghosts, and Dickens's novel.  My only complaint is that it's open-door spice.  Otherwise, it would have been a five-star read.

From the publisher:

He’s the Ghost of Christmas Past. She’s not exactly Scrooge.

Ghost of Christmas Past Nolan Callahan intends to spend this holiday haunting like every other—get in, get out, return to his otherwise aimless existence as a ghost awaiting the afterlife. But when he’s faced with Harriet York, the sweetest assignment he’s ever had, he suddenly finds himself wishing for a future.

Harriet York has no idea why she’s being haunted. She’s a good person—or, at least, she tries to be. A people pleaser to her core, she always does what’s expected of her. But as she and Nolan begin to examine her past, they discover there are threads that bind them together— and realize there might be more to moving on than expected.

With the deadline of Christmas Eve fast approaching, will they find the key to their futures in each other’s pasts? Or will they stay firmly in the present, indulging in their unexpected, spirited connection?

Filled with magic, mayhem, and cozy holiday charm
