Hating Halloween


Book Description

FROM POPULAR ROMANCE AUTHOR ELIZABETH COLDWELL Book four in the Holiday Falls series Will she have a fresh chance of lasting love in Holiday Falls— or will her loathing of Halloween get in the way?

She' s a perfect fit for the role of assistant manager at the Maltby Farm Inn, and owner Miranda thinks so too, hiring her on the spot. What Poppy doesn' t expect is that her new home will bring her in contact with handsome bartender, Finn Gallagher. Poppy and Finn share an instant attraction, and before she knows it, she' s in bed with him. Their sex is hotter than she' s ever known, made more exciting by Finn' s love of flirting with danger and letting Poppy take a dominant role. Poppy begins to believe there are no limits to what they can do together— until Finn suggests a hot date at a local Halloween attraction. Poppy has hated Halloween since she was a kid, and their trip to the haunted house seems likely to ruin their romance, rather than take it to the next level. Does their love stand the ghost of a chance, or will life in Holiday Falls be more trick than treat for Poppy?

He knows that if you’re even slightly interested in identifying birds or attracting them to your backyard with a feeder, then you’ve also had your share of strange and silly questions about birds and their sometimes inexplicable behavior. In Why Do Bluebirds Hate Me?, O’Connor applies his deep knowledge of all things avian to answer the questions that keep birders up at night. Questions like · Should you clean your birdhouses? · Do swallows have a feather fetish? · How much does it cost to run a heated birdbath? · Is drinking coffee bad for birds? Other questions O’Connor covers range from the practical (Should I rotate the seed in my feeder?) to the quirky (Why are vultures eating my vinyl screen door?) to the just plain adorable (Are those birds kissing or feeding each other?). And he also explains why bluebirds just don’t seem to like some people.
