Readers of Josie Silver and Sophie Cousens will adore New York Times bestselling author Stacy Finz's emotional character arcs and cozy fall time vibes in this Hallmark Movie-esque tale steeped in magical realism, as two very different half-sisters discover they have one thing in common: they re both in hot water. To get out of it, they may have to learn that life s hidden treasures aren t always so hidden and that dreams can come true even when wishes don t . . . Scrappy, worldly Kennedy Jenkins and soft-hearted Emma Keil barely know each other, but when life throws them each a curve ball, they re suddenly living together in a rundown trailer park they ve inherited from their late father, in a nowhere California town aptly called Ghost. After all, their neighbor, Madam Misty, is a soothsayer-witch, and Halloween is just around the corner. A casino host, Kennedy is hiding out from a high roller who wrongly thinks she stole tens of thousands of dollars from him. Emma, a flat-broke advice columnist who can t take her own advice, has lost her apartment, and her on-again, off-again, commitment phobic boyfriend, Dex, is no help. Still, she s charmed by Ghost, its quirky residents and the enigmatic guy who lives in trailer 510 while Kennedy is sure their father hid a fortune somewhere. She s determined to find it even if it means turning to Madam Misty . . . When Madam Misty grants them three wishes, they re clear: Kennedy wants money; Emma just wants Dex. But as the nights get chillier, and Halloween descends, a special kind of magic ensues one that will reveal surprising truths about their father, themselves and what they really want out of life . . .
