Entities to Lovers - by Mallory Marlowe (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

AN INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

A connection that's more than supernatural emerges between two rival tour guides who wish they could ghost each other in this sparkling romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Mallory Marlowe.

Paranormal medium Rory Woods spends her days offering psychic readings at Ye Olde Spirit Shop and nights haunting the streets of Boston as a ghost-tour guide. Sure, business could be better, but she's proud of the shop she runs with her mom.

Enter Ezra Blackwell: adjunct history professor, noted thorn in Rory's side, and--though she'd only admit it under threat of medieval torture he surely knows too much about--a distractingly handsome, charismatic coworker.

Rory can't stand Ezra's know-it-all, show-offy behavior. Ezra loves to tease the gorgeous, brilliant medium at the shop. And when the two are forced to host a tour together? It's no wonder they end up hexed after disturbing a matchmaking ghost.

Saddled with perpetual bad luck unless they're physically near each other, Rory and Ezra will try anything, from séances to kissing, to stop the jinx from wreaking havoc on both their lives. But in their quest to appease the spirit, they realize that growing closer might not be the curse they once thought it was.
