Book description
Forget Scrooge-this holiday season, the real ghost haunting your heart is Nolan Callahan, the Ghost of Christmas Past (who's way more charming than Dickens ever imagined). B.K. Borison's Good Spirits isn't just a cozy holiday romance; it's a glittering, heart-melting audio experience that'll have you reaching for your cocoa and hitting "repeat" on the narrator's voice. Seriously, this audiobook is the holiday equivalent of finding a perfectly wrapped gift under the tree-unexpected, warm, and impossible to resist.
Nolan's all about haunting efficiently: Get in, get out, return to his ghostly limbo. But then he meets Harriet, a people-pleaser so sweet she'd offer her last cookie to a snowman. Cue the magic: as Nolan guides her through her past (and accidentally stumbles through his own), you'll hear the swoon in every whispered secret. The audiobook's genius? The narrator nails Nolan's dry, wry ghostly charm-like when he sighs, "Another soul who thinks 'being good' means ignoring their own heart?"-and Harriet's gentle panic as she realizes she's been haunted by... well, him. You'll feel the cozy magic in the crackle of the narrator's voice, the way they make you lean in during those slow-burn moments.
Borison's twist? This isn't just another Christmas romance-it's a love story where the past isn't a burden, but a bridge. And the audiobook? It's made for this. Picture it: you're curled up, snow falling outside, and Nolan's voice (think: a mix of Hugh Grant's charm and a ghost's playful sigh) guides you through Harriet's tangled memories. The magic isn't just in the words-it's in how the audio makes you feel the warmth of a shared secret, the thrill of a near-miss, the quiet joy of realizing you've been seen.
Let's be real: most holiday romances feel like sugarplum dreams you'd rather skip. Good Spirits? It's the cozy sweater you never knew you needed. It's witty without being snarky, magical without being cheesy, and utterly, perfectly swoony. Borison's best yet? Absolutely. And the audiobook? It's the kind of listen you'll gift to a friend just so you can say, "Trust me, you need this in your ears." So grab your favorite mug, press play, and let Nolan's ghostly shivers turn your heart into a holiday carol. You won't just hear this story-you'll feel it, all the way to your sugarplum dreams.
