Goodreads Synopsis:
When Jessie Gibbs meets Lemuel Sanders, she thinks she has finally found her ideal man—until she discovers that he is the ghost of a Civil War soldier. For 144 years, Lem has kept vigil at his unmarked battlefield grave, seeking someone to complete a personal mission so he can go to his final rest. As love grows between them, Jessie is torn. If she succeeds in fulfilling Lem’s wish, she’ll lose him when he passes into the afterlife. But if she fails and he remains in the world, she’ll never be free to find intimacy with a living man. A riveting story of faith, passion, and selfless devotion, Stones River shows the power of love to overcome all obstacles—even death itself.
Review:
This is a beautiful story about love and loss. Jess falls in love with her perfect man, but he turns out to be the ghost of a soldier from the Civil War. I liked this supernatural romance. I was rooting for Jess and Lem, even though it seemed impossible for them to have a future. This story was fast paced and exciting!
Stones River is a beautiful story.
