Killed one random evening in his new home, Ian Holt was far from done with his life. ‘The Voice” keeps him on earth in ghost form, but only in his home, which sits empty for years after his death. Paige Stanfield escaped an abusive relationship after a decade of marriage. She wants peace and to regain her confidence, but her ex-husband continues to terrorize her. Ian and Paige form a plan to keep the ex at bay, but when feelings grow between human and ghost, both know no good can come. What sort of future can Paige really have with a man who isn’t really there?
Phantom Lover takes a lot of classic ghost elements and adds interesting spins. I enjoyed the change up with the ex-husband and the abilities Ian had. The mother in law was also a really interesting character. For the most part the plot was very predictable and though there were some new things, I had moments of de ja vu reminding me of many other ghost lover type stories I’ve read in the past. Still, it was a nice story and hit all the right notes for someone looking for a sweet and sexy ghost story.
