Maggie Rae-McInnis is happy in her twelve-year relationship with Addison and renting out the rooms in their large home in the Hollywood Hills.

Tess Rossini and Dusty Gardner, the couple's closest friends and long-term tenants, face their own fears as they navigate the uncharted waters of love, and Eve Jacobs, newest arrival, finds herself on a path of self-discovery.

The love and friendship these women share make up the threads that weave together to form the unbreakable bonds that last a lifetime.

For a smart woman, Alex is pretty clueless. She wants the truth, but she's looking in the wrong place. She wants love, but she's not looking at all. If only Cam didn't keep disrupting her life, Alex might be able to find some answers. After all, it's not as if Cam is interested in her. Which is probably a good thing, since Cam is even more infuriating than she is charming—and she's got plenty of charm.

On the other hand, Rosamund, Cam's ex and Alex's professional rival, is definitely interested in Alex, but can she be trusted? Alex doesn't even realize the historic house she's staying in is haunted. Perhaps a little supernatural help will lead Alex to uncover the secret of a love story hidden for over a century, and to solve the greatest mystery of all—the truth hidden in her own heart.
