Jilly Hart is used to being called an unsavory thing or two. Gold digger. Serial bride. You name it. All because Jilly doesn't believe in love...or magic. Just cold hard cash. There's no way she's going to go back to living a life of poverty. But when she finds herself a widow-for the fourth time - all she has left is a nineteenth-century inn in South Fork, Arkansas. Her plan is to sell the inn to make enough money to hunt for wealthy husband number five.

Jilly's plan unravels when she finally lays eyes on the place. It's a wreck. And locals say the building is haunted. But can Evan Luchetti, the local handyman, turn the place around? Even more, can Evan convince Jilly there's magic in their love-a love that could make her far richer than any life money can buy?
