Description

When Mimosa and her mother arrive in Whitby and set up as fortune tellers, Mimosa's looking forward to making new friends - especially the drop-dead gorgeous Quill Newton. The problem is, Quill is a ghost who lived over two hundred years ago.

Quick Summary

Imagine a town where a teenage fortune teller accidentally befriends a handsome ghost who's been stuck for centuries Mimosa Fortune delivers that twist with a mix of humor, spooky thrills, and a surprising amount of heart. If you like light-hearted spooky stories with a dash of romance, this one's for you; even reluctant readers get pulled in by the fast-paced dialogue and the lovable odd-couple dynamic. Parents will be glad to know the scares are more fun than frightening, with occasional creepy moments that stay PG-13, and the book's tone stays upbeat and hopeful. Mimosa juggles school life, helping her mom with the fortune-telling booth, and trying to figure out how to free Quill from his ghostly state, all while navigating the usual teenage drama. Fans of quirky paranormal romance will find a similar vibe to "The Ghost and the Darkness," though Mimosa Fortune adds a modern British twist.
