Synopsis


Jenny Carpenter is the unrivaled pie-baking champion of Last Chance, South Carolina's annual Watermelon Festival and the town's unofficial spinster. With her dream of marriage and children on hold, she focuses on another dream, turning the local haunted house into a charming bed-and-breakfast. But her plans go off course when the home's former owner shows up on her doorstep on a dark and stormy night . . .

Mega-bestselling horror writer Gabriel Raintree is as mysterious and tortured as his heroes. His family's long-deserted mansion is just the inspiration he needs to finish his latest twisted tale, or so he thinks until he learns it's been sold. The new innkeeper proves to be as determined as she is kind, and soon Gabriel finds himself a paying guest in his own home. As Jenny and Gabe bring new passion to the old house, can she convince him to leave the ghosts of his past behind-and make Last Chance their first choice for a future together?

I needed a nice, comfortable, heartwarming read, and I got it with the Inn. I also got a ghost story, some horror, and a beautiful dog that broke my heart. I love the Last Chance stories. I'm a bit sad to be this close to the end of the series.......more

Goodreads review by Elizabeth on May 25, 2019

I just discovered the Last Chance series, and of course I had to start near the beginning! The Inn at Last Chance has strong characters, including a delightful female lead, Jenny. Jenny is funny, strong, determined, and Southern with a capital "S." Throw in a "difficult" male writer, a petulant ghos......more
