About this listen

New York Times best-selling author Michelle M. Pillow comes a cozy paranormal mystery full of mischief, magic, and gnomes—and brimming with romantic possibilities.

Some people just have all the luck. And then there are people like Lily Goode. Abandoned at a young age, Lily and her brother, Dante, have never had it easy. So when Lily learns she has inherited an old house her estranged mother left behind, she thinks it could be the opportunity to make a fresh start. But she quickly learns that things aren't exactly what they seem in Lucky Valley. The mysterious accidents and strange hallucinations have Lily wondering: Has her luck run out—or simply taken an otherworldly turn? Gifted, prolific performer B.J. Harrison brings the perfect blend of suspense and charm to Lily's tale.

When Lily inherits a Victorian manor in Lucky Valley for her mother. She see's that a lot of work is needed as the list of citations that Nolan Dawson has given her proves. The locals are not friendly and strange thinks keep happening.
This is a funny read with great characters Aunt Polly is a hoot. I look forward to the next story. B.J. Harrison's narration is excellent.

I really enjoyed this quirky, magical tale! Watching Lily fumble—and occasionally sparkle—her way through learning to control her powers was an absolute hoot. The slow-burn romance with Nolan added just the right touch of sweetness and anticipation.

The unfolding mystery kept me hooked, with so many fun pieces to puzzle together: mysterious people (alive and dead), an enchanting house, Aunt Polly’s secrets, gnomes with attitude, mischievous cats, and of course, Lily’s sister and Nolan himself. Every twist was delightfully entertaining.

A fun, feel-good read with just the right amount of magic, mystery, and heart!

This charming story has it all - mystery, romance, the dark and the light with plenty of humour, excellent and enjoyable characterisation, and a pace that keeps you hooked. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish, and would highly recommend it.
The dark moments are quite impressive but never too threatening - the humour is always fun - the actual writing is excellent, the romance is sweet without being sexual - and there are some very original elements.\
I shall be off to buy the second in the series.

Talk about quirky, I loved every moment. Somehow I started this series with book two, so it did mean I had a vague idea of what or who was responsible but that in no way detracted from the enjoyment. It just meant I could sit back and let the enjoyment and high jinks unfold. There is no mystery as such and definitely no investigating, it's more somebody is using underhanded means to try and get Lily and her brother to leave but with curses, bad luck and newly acquired magic things don't go as planned. So as you can imagine there is humour spread throughout the book and that's before you are in the mysterious goings on in the house with gnomes, unusual animal familliar's and crazy aunts. This also means the story is very character driven and I just love aunt Polly with her eccentricities and unusual way of helping. Actually all the characters had me chuckling at something they did or said at one point or another. I know there is a second book in the series, I just hope there are more to come.

Lily Goode was abandoned at a fire station with her younger brother and sister, so she is use to taking care of everything. So when she finds out her mother has died and has left her a Victorian house in Lucky Valley, she thinks her mother has finally done something right. That is until she and her brother move to the small town. The house comes with an aunt they have never meet and her pet lobsters, an obscene number of gnomes, that she is sure is multiplying and a curse. Nobody in town wants to have anything to do with the Goode name and blame her ancestor for any bad luck that happens. Somebody is willing to do anything to get them to leave and vandalism and fires are just the start. Lily isn't one to be pushed around and when she learns the family secret, she and her brother decide to prove everybody wrong and make ago at a new life.
I did think a male narrator was an unusual choice because the main character is female. However he did such a good job that he soon stopped me thinking and just had me lost in the story.I
