The Haunting of Hillwood Farm by Kathryn KnightMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I don't often gravitate to Romantic Suspense, but this novel was wonderful and I am very happy I didn't overlook it based on its genre. There is a strong supernatural element here; in fact, that is what drives the novel for me. However, fans of Romantic Suspense will also delight in THE HAUNTING OF HILLWOOD FARM because of the lovable characters, the romantic tension, the need for one of the main trio to "suspend disbelief" in order to acknowledge what is actually occurring and to get past his mistrust of the new entry into his and his grandmother's lives. Any fiction seems so much better when the reader can delve into the characters and find points of similarity and interest, and that is very much the case in this novel.
25-year-old Callie Sinclair gained psychic ability following a brief coma induced by a winter traffic accident. Now she "hears" from the deceased, whether or not she wishes to. But sometimes she can pass out information or guidance to a grieving loved one, and the results are beneficial. When she tries to help the elderly, recently widowed, Alice Turner, she finds more than one spirit to deal with, along with the skepticism and disbelief of Alice's very appealing grandson Luke. Romance, Supernatural, and Danger elements are all prevalent in this novel, in a champion plot.
