Lady Cassandra Priske sees dead people…not all the time, but occasionally. When her family is summoned to Castle Keyvnor for the reading of her great uncle's will, Cassy is more than terrified. After all, the castle is famous for its hauntings. But the very last person, dead or alive, she expects to find there is the rakish Lord. St. Giles. After all, she spent the last season hiding from that very man.

Jack Hazleton, Baron St. Giles, has been skirt chasing most of his life. However, over the last year, he’s only been chasing one set of skirts. Unfortunately, Lady Cassandra always eludes his grasp and has become an expert at hiding from him. But when he learns she’ll be attending her great-uncle’s will reading, he manages an invite for himself, wagering that she’s finally run out of places to hide.

Once Upon A Moonlit Path by Ava Stone is book one in the Haunted Hearts series. This was my first book to read by Stone and I loved it. Lady Cassandra Priske is visiting Castle Keyvnor to hear the reading of her great uncle’s will. But Cassie has heard that the castle is haunted and is already frightened when she arrives. Jack Hazelwood, Lord St. Giles has tagged along with Cassandra’s cousin Michael in the hopes of seeing her again. Jack has long held a tendre’ for her. But will his attraction to her fade when she claims to have seen a ghost? Is Cassandra mad?

“She honestly didn’t know what to think about St. Giles. He was too charming by half and the most handsome man she’d ever seen with his dark hair and his silvery eyes and that endearing dimple in the middle of his chin, but the way he often watched her was unsettling.”

I loved the attraction between the hero and heroine. A really great story! I can’t wait to read more from Ms. Stone.
