Romance ignites between a New York investment banker and a Bayou belle - with the interference of a spirited ghost - in this light hearted romantic comedy set in lively New Orleans. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Nick Gerard has had some problems with his property on 1113 Royal Street in New Orleans. Problems that keep holding up his ability to sell it. Determined to find out who or what is behind it all, he decides to go undercover as a tenant. So he flies down to Louisiana, but catches pneumonia and winds up sick as a dog in the building. A building Maggie Mayfair knows well. Since she'd moved in with a broken heart, the tenants there had taken her under their wings. She felt like they were all family. None of the tenants like the fact that the ogre of an owner is selling them down the river.Maggie is determined never to fall in love again. But lust, a good old fashioned roll in the hay or two, that's a horse of a different color and when she meets the new tenant, she takes a shine to him. And because he is kind of secretive, she, like the other tenants in the building, assume he's a mysterious writer who is rumored to be in town doing a book.Nick recognizes that Maggie is making a move and he thinks she looks just like the marrying kind, the kind he wants to avoid at all costs. But can he? And what will happen when Maggie finds out who he really is? Oh, and by the way, is there a matchmaking ghost on the premise or is that just a phony problem to scare away buyers? So much to ponder was you read through this witty book that I really enjoyed.

Storyline and characters were funny and likeable. I liked the ghost factor, even though at one point it gave me the chills.
