Eldrith Manor
Leigh Rivers
by Cara Calloway
Winona knows how to outrun a storm, but she cannot escape her past when she finds herself locked inside the crumbling Black Magnolia Penitentiary. As the host of a ghost-hunting web series, she is only there to help her brother solve a decades-old murder mystery. However, when a massive, life-threatening tornado forces the local storm chasers to seek shelter in the same decrepit prison, Winona comes face-to-face with the one man she never wanted to see again: her ex-boyfriend, Charlie.
This sizzling paranormal romance masterfully blends the high-stakes adrenaline of Twisters with the eerie atmosphere of a classic ghost hunt. Forced into close proximity by the howling winds outside, Winona and Charlie must navigate the heavy tension of their failed relationship while trapped in a building that refuses to keep its secrets buried. It is a wild, whacky, and deeply emotional ride that turns a cold-case investigation into a race against both the elements and their own stubborn hearts.
Perfect for fans of spicy, angsty second-chance romances, this story delivers everything from heart-pounding suspense to witty, well-timed banter. If you are looking for a gripping read where the ghosts are loud but the chemistry between the leads is even louder, this is your next obsession.

One of my top reads of the year!! Is it whacky? Yes. Is it wild? Yes. Is it fun? Hell yeah it is! It's sexy nancy drew meets Twisters meets Ghost Hunters. But in between the rom-com well-timed comedic breaks (hello, the ghosts like to meddle), this author tackles gritty, hard life subjects. We see the main female character, Winona wrestle between long-held insecurity and wounds from a neglectful family. We watch as Charlie, the male main character, confronts his own betrayal about their...

I absolutely devoured this book. The plot already had me intrigued as I love a good ghost hunting moment, but the real hook for me was the tension between the main characters. Winnie had so much depth and nuance to her character. She's beautifully flawed with so much wit that I never got tired of being in her brain. SO many times I laughed out right or felt her pain in my own chest. And then there's Charlie. Charlie \"I'm so f***ing hungry, Winona.\" Rosenhoth. Charlie \"Just give me one...

Thanks to NetGalley and Cara Calloway for the ARC! As always, my opinions are my own. Winona and her brother River have a ghost-hunting podcast that brings her to a long-closed Texas prison, investigating a convicted murderer who may have been innocent and lovers with his alleged victim. Charlie has a storm-chasing channel and gets dropped at the prison by his fellow chasers to photograph an oncoming storm from the guard tower - the highest point around. Winona and Charlie have A Past and a lot...

Unfinished Business by Cara Calloway 4.25/5⭐️ 3/3🌶️ (5ish scenes) 3/3🦋 •My Thoughts• This is the kind of hidden gem that you hope to find when you read new, smaller authors. In just 300 pages, the author gives a second chance redemption story with a ghost mystery that was so swoony and fast paced! This book does two things I generally struggle with really well: dual timeline and a believable second chance break up reason. I often find that I have a hard time with dual timelines but this one...
