karlabrandenburg 's review for:

True Love by Jude Deveraux
4.0

Alix Madsen is graduating architecture school and has been given a free year on Nantucket to develop her portfolio, only to discover the owner of the house she's been offered to live in is Jared Montgomery, world renowned architect extraordinaire.

But Jared's house is haunted, and he has no intention of sticking around while some green student tries to pick his brains to advance her career.

A meddlesome ghost with a secret, along with decades of secrets designed to protect Alix unfold with predictable results. I received this book as a giveaway, and as a Jude Deveraux fan, I was thrilled. I love the intertwining of past lives and modern, and in spite of a somewhat cheesy resolution to the romance, I devoured this book like a yummy chocolate bar. The descriptions of life on Nantucket were brilliant, and the relationships were complex and touching.
