Inn at Last Chance

By: Hope Ramsay

Narrated by: Kristin Kalbli

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?

Delightful Story

I loved this book thoroughly! Anyone who has lived or lives in the South will love these characters and the setting.

Ramsay weaves a wonderful tale replete with a most likable heroine and an intriguing hero.

The read is fantastic. The narrator has the South Carolina accent down perfectly and her ability to play an array of characters is impressive.

I wasn’t a reader of romantic fiction before The Inn at Last Chance, but Ramsay’s talent at creating a great plot and authentic dialogue has me ready to listen to her next book! Definitely worth it!
