Hello, I am Simone Beaudelaire, author of romance, horror and women's fiction. I have published over 30 works, most with my publisher, Next Chapter. In real life, I'm a wife, mother, and full-time instructor of College Composition, Literature, and Creative Writing.
A man in a brown suit is rumored to haunt the Auditorium at Haysville State University. Julie Masterson, an engineering student sets out to dispel the rumors. She is a skeptic, according to her theory certain circumstances can cause electromagnetic fields to “trigger auditory or visual hallucinations” in sensitive people. She meets science student, Theodore Kent who does believe in ghosts and together they decide to find out what is really happening at the University. Will they succeed in debunking the myth about the ghost or is there some truth in the rumors after all? Haunted Hookup is a fast-paced story that provides fascinating information about ghosts and haunting. The book includes scenes of a sexual nature but they don’t detract from the main theme. It is a great read for days when you want to just stay indoors and enjoy a good book, It won’t disappoint, it will definitely keep you hooked until the very end.
Okay, The characters are quirky and real. It's nerd love, so endearing right from the very start. Even the love scenes are very genuine depictions of very real people, not overblown flowery imaginings.
In that sense, this book is edgy for a romance novel. It defies expectation. That's very attractive to me. I think the romance genre has stayed very static in it's definitions of what is and is not love for far too long. Love looks different on everybody, and, on these two, it's impetuous, as it so often is at that age, and sweet.
