Here’s what the book is all about…<\/p>\n

Sometimes there’s more to a house than bricks and mortar.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Hillcrest House is one such place. Perched on a cliff in the picturesque town of Angel Falls, there is more to this Victorian mansion than meets the eye. When referring to the house, the locals use the word haunted on a regular basis. Strange visions appear in the windows, especially the second-floor ones over the side porch. Even stranger events take place within its four walls.<\/p>\n

Rumour has it, the original owners, Asher and Maggie Hargrave, never left their beloved home. They claim the couple and their family are responsible for driving people away. Over the years, Hillcrest House has changed hands numerous times. No one stays long. Renovations begin then stop and the house is once more abandoned. The latest in this long line of owners is Jessica Maitland.<\/p>\n

Will Jessica be the next one to succumb or will she unravel The Secret of Hillcrest House?<\/p>\n

And how about these quotes???<\/p>\n

Melanie Robertson-King\u2019s latest novel serves up a delightful blend of the supernatural and spicy romance, Lynn L. Clark, author of The Home Child, and Fire Whisperer & Circle of Souls: Two Novellas of the Supernatural, & The Accusers <\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n

Intrigue, dark buried secrets, hot romance and a neat twist in the tale make this riveting reading, Sheryl Browne, MA Creative Writing, Choc Lit Author <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

A fun read that keeps you guessing right up to the surprise ending, Dayna Leigh Cheser, Author of Janelle\u2019s Time, Moria\u2019s Time, Adelle\u2019s Time, & Logan\u2019s Time<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Don’t they want to make you want to read it?<\/p>\n

Here’s the universal amazon<\/a> link so you can download your copy and find out what all the fuss is about.<\/p>\n
