Holly Celeste and her sisters make the best apple cider in Maine—courtesy of a secret ingredient—but even that hasn’t been enough to keep their apple farm afloat. When a rival apple farm makes an offer, Holly has a choice: sell to her personal nemesis, or accept Connor Grimm’s proposal to film an episode of his ghost hunting series on her farm. Connor Grimm may be the sexy and down-to-earth host the nation loves, but to Holly he represents her greatest fear: exposure. Holly doesn’t mind if Connor chases down a silly ghost story—it’s their other secret she’s terrified he’ll reveal.

Connor’s life goal is to normalize the paranormal, which he does by collecting and sharing ghost hauntings on his show, Grimm Reality. There have been rumors of a ghost at Wicked Good Apples, but that’s not the real reason he’s dying to roll the cameras there. There have also been reports of rain during droughts, disease-free apples, and a spate of good luck that could only be attributed to something paranormal. Connor knows one thing: if creatures other than ghosts exist, he’s going to expose them on national TV.

Despite Holly’s resolution to dislike Connor, she begins to fall for the man who throws his body over a hedgehog to save it from harm and carries her to bed when she has a migraine. Too bad a relationship could only be temporary. Connor Grimm is married to his show and he moves to a new state every month—there’s no room for a woman with a pet hedgehog, a houseful of nosey aunts and sisters, and a failing apple farm.

When Connor and Holly unravel the origin behind the ghost in the apple orchard, Connor finally pieces together Holly’s greatest secret. What he knows will shoot Grimm Reality to the top of the viewer charts, but for once he’s wondering if some things are better left bedtime stories. Holly isn’t the witch he thought—but she’s more than a little wicked, and she’s entirely charmed his heart.
