Opal is living in Eden, Kentucky, taking care of her younger brother Jasper. The two of them have lived in a motel since their mother died. When Opal meets Arthur who lives in the Starling House, she takes his good paying job offer and gets sucked into the secrets of the house.

I didn’t buy the romance in this novel. The magical/fantasy elements didn’t really work for me either. The story was decent and would likely appeal to those who enjoy fantasy.
