Winter Song (Spirit of Love Book 1)

"Winter Song" is a great cuddle up under the afgan, sip tea, and let your imagination run wild book! Lots of interesting characters (including one vocal ghost). Be warned, however: Once you stop reading you can't put it down! Enjoyed it and will read it again and again.

Well written and properly edited, this book was a quick and enjoyable read. It only took me a few hours to finish, but I liked the characters and appreciated that they all had realistic motivations and responses. The backdrop was gorgeous, the pacing was sound, and I would definitely read something by this author again.

Great story. It was really sad how she lost Cooper, but amazing that he watched over to keep her safe and let her love again and forgiving his father and accepting him. Most of all Sage for finding love again with Noah.

Winter Song by Jennifer McMurrain is a fascinating ghost story. It has all of the right elements - a ghost, of course, a person or two who can talk to the ghost, someone who knows of the existence of the ghost and several people who have no clue that the ghost exists or even that there are such specters. The story line follows a love triangle drawn together by the characters and, at times, humorous aspects that will catch your imagination and hold your attention to the end.
Sage McKennan is devastated when she loses the love of her life. Armed with his memory and her determination, she decides to continue with their dream of opening Winter Song, an old two-story cabin as a bed & breakfast. When she hires Noah Finnley, a down-on-his luck carpenter, to help her work on the renovations, the ghost of her dead fiancé makes trouble for them. Noah tries to make Cooper Davis, aka the ghost, go into the light. Cooper refuses because of a promise he had made to Sage to be with her always. There is an odd bit of romance, involving Cooper, Noah, the local sheriff and Sage, with a little criminal activity thrown into the mix.
Do you believe in ghosts? Do you want to know what happens? Jennifer Mc Murrain's story will test your beliefs. If you want to know how the story plays out, you will have to read it for yourself.

Just finished this book. Jennifer did a great job with this one. The interaction between Noah and Cooper is fantastic, I laughed so much reading this. It also has a good balance of sorrow that made me cry more than a couple of times. The extra twist towards the end of the book was great, It totally caught me off guard as I didn't expect it.

I could not put down Winter Song! It had everything I love about books, a little bit of a love story, a little bit of a ghost story, and beautiful surroundings to bring it all together. A beautiful read for anyone. Jennifer, you did a beautiful job, truly enjoyed being able to get lost for a little bit. Keep up the beautiful work so I can get lost again.

I was pulled in, right from the beginning! I was tearing up before I even got too far into the book.

I am a very visual reader and I could see and feel every emotion that was in Winter Song.

Mrs. McMurrain delivered again with Winter Song. I have enjoyed her short stories and Quail Crossing. Can't wait for more to be published!

Could love survive even death? That is the question that Winter Song asks. And even more should it?
MacMurrain writes a beautiful tale of a supernatural love triangle that will keep you rooting for both sides until the end. Murder Goes to Church
