the storyline evolved well with solid characters

Morgan our heroine goes from a strapped beginning and has a financial windfall over night; an inheritance she receives from her father. But along with the inheritance comes a ghost, mystery and romance. I listened in one day...while driving and the time flew by it was an attention grabber. I liked the way the storyline evolves. The characters were solid and it will keep you guessing till the end! I recommend this audible.

Ghosts and a creepy tower!

Morgan inherits her eccentric father's estate when he passes. He was never a part of her life until his death. She gre up poor struggling for everything and suddenly has a fortune and mansiin with a chilling history. It still contains furnishings from the first owners and a ghost or two.

For a short story the author uses good pacing and builds a suspenseful tale using small details and descriptions. She drops clues throughout without giving away too much at a time. It's difficult to build intrigue in so few pages but she does it. I wanted to know what was going to happen next so listened to the entire story in one sitting.

Loved it!

I received the book free from the author through Audiobook Boom.

Nice old house.....

Would you listen to Come to the Tower, Love again? Why?

I don't think I would read it again as I loved it and know most everything that happened.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Not really on the edge til the last couple of chapters. Brother came out of nowhere.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When they finally had hope for a new beginning.

Come to the tower

This was an ok book.It could have been the poor narration that put me off.The woman who moved into the haunted house was wimpy and fickle.The male characters were one dimensional and a bit dim witted as narrated by Daniela Acitelli.Had she read it just in her voice at a steady clip it would have been better.The ending was just bad.I was given this book free by the author, narrator or publisher.

Bad ending

What a great story. I was so into this story. I was on the edge of my seat and couldn't wait to start listening each day. I didn't like the way the narrator pronounced things when talking with any of the male characters (slow and deliberate).
This book doesn't stand on its own. It just stops and you need the next book to continue the story. I don't like books that can't stand on their own.

Come to the Tower

Come to the Tower, Love: Northeastern Gothic Mysteries, Book 1
: Lisa Greer


A modern gothic with mystery, suspense , romance, and strange noises and things that go bump in the dark. This quick listen was ok, but felt a bit rushed. The author had a good storyline going, but didn't flesh it out into a full length novel.


The narration was well done.The characters were well portrayed. Daniela Acitelli gave a good performance as always.

Decent Romance / Scary Story

This is an average scary story/romance audiobook. I liked the premise of the book and many of its elements a lot. I'm not much of a fan of romance stories, but the book description sounded good... So needless to say that I found the romance aspect a little dull. I also a few of the aspects of the story a little unbelievable. At only about 3 1/2 hours, I would have also liked it to be a little longer instead of carrying over to the next book. However, all-in-all I thought the story was decent and I would definitely recommend it if you like or don't mind romance books.

The narrator was good for most of the story, but some of her voices seemed a little ridiculous... She was otherwise a good narrator, but the voices bothered me.

More Gothic Romance...

...than suspenseful, creepy tale. When Morgan suddenly inherits Woodmere Manor from a father she didn't know existed, she is thrust into a mystery on her very first night! She is enchanted with a strange portrait of a woman and another of a solemn man who stare at each other from across a room. Morgan must decide if she is just spooked to be living in the mansion alone or if there is something more supernatural or sinister going on.

I would have liked more suspenseful, creepiness in this listen over the romance aspects that took up much of Morgan's time. She did such stupid things. First, she sees the man from the painting on her lawn and then goes and adopts...a cat?? Second, she immediately develops an attraction for the local priest. I mean like at first sight. Third, the priest offers to bless her home when she confides in him about her finds in the tower and she doesn't have him do it, like right now? The premise was a good one for this story but I would have liked less of the romance and angst that took up so much of Morgan's thoughts and more creepy, suspenseful atmosphere as well as more backstory on Morgan, her father, Noel, and Owen.

I enjoyed some of Daniela Acitelli's narration like Morgan, Noel, and her old lady voices but others were annoying or weird sounding like Owen and the psychic lady. Owen's voice was so weird, it had me wondering how Morgan could be conflicted by him at all.

Just OK

This book could not make up its mind if it was a romance or a horrer story, in my opinion it fell short on both ends. I'm very sorry to say that I could not recommend this book. I was voluntarily provided I review copy by the publisher author or narrator

Come to the Tower

Any additional comments?

This was an okay book. It didn't really keep my interest at times and the narrator was a little annoying in my opinion. I would have enjoyed the book more if it would have had a different narrator.
