Magnolia Nights - Magnolia, #1 - E-book - ePub

Plagued by gaps in her childhood memories, Ellie Pringle has spent years in therapy trying to unlock the secrets of her past. But it's the unexpected death of a grandmother she hasn't seen in over three decades that catapults her into a journey of profound discovery. Inheriting a fortune along with an antebellum mansion in Charleston's historic South Battery, Ellie decides to leave behind her life in San Francisco-and a heart-wrenching breakup-to confront her past head-on. Stepping into the cavernous halls of her ancestral home, Ellie immediately senses she's not alone.
The house seems to whisper with ghosts of the past, the most pressing of whom is her own deceased mother. When Ellie stumbles upon her mother's leather-bound journal on a dusty bookshelf, she's plunged into a maze of haunting revelations that demand answers. With the impending threat of Hurricane Lorene swirling toward the South Carolina coast, Ellie meets Julian Hagood-a charismatic architect with the skills to restore her crumbling mansion and perhaps heal her shattered heart.
But delving deeper into her mother's diaries, her discoveries send her spiraling down a path of shocking realizations and harrowing truths.
