The Summer of Moonlight Secrets
From the inside cover
At the Meriwether, Florida's famous antebellum hotel off of Hope Springs, nothing is quite as it seems. Secret staircases give way to servants' quarters; hidden tunnels run criss cross under the hotel; and rooms on the top floors sit abandoned, draped in cobwebs and darkness.
None of this scares Allie Jo Jackson; she's lived at The Meriwether her whole life and knows every square inch of the hotel a hundred times over. Nothing surprises her. Nothing, that is, until the first time she spots the enigmatic and beautiful Tara emerging from the springs. Tara's shimmery skin, long flowing hair, and strange penchant for moonlight swims disguise a mysterious secret--and once Allie Jo and her friend Chase learn the truth about Tara, nothing will ever be the same again.
