"I am always on the lookout for exciting new writers, and once I started reading Charleston Green by Stephanie Alexander, I was captivated. This novel leaves the reader entranced; the writing is skillful and clever and funny. I highly recommend this book." —New York Times Bestselling Author Elin Hilderbrand
"With humor, heart and a heaping helping of Southern Charm, Charleston Green brings an entirely new meaning to the term 'unwanted house guests.' Tipsy is a lovable, flawed, complex heroine that readers will root for from the first page to the last—and pitch-perfect storytelling will leave fans begging for a sequel. This is Stephanie Alexander at her best!" —USA Today Bestselling Author of Feels Like Falling, Kristy Woodson Harvey
If Tipsy Collins learned one thing from her divorce, it's that everyone in Charleston, South Carolina is a little crazy—even if they're already dead.
Tipsy may not be able to ignore her nutty friends or vindictive ex-husband, but as a reluctant, lifelong clairvoyant, she has always avoided dead people. That all changes when she and her three children move into a new house on Bennett Street in Charleston. There, Tipsy learns that some ghosts won't be ignored.
'Til death do us part didn't pan out for Jane and Henry Mott, who have haunted the Bennett Street house for nearly a century. In fact, Tipsy's marriage was downright felicitous compared to Jane and Henry's ill-fated union. Jane believes Henry killed her and then himself—though Henry vehemently denies both accusations. Unfortunately, neither phantom remembers all the details of that ill-fated afternoon in 1923.
Tipsy doesn't know whether to side with Jane, who seems to be hiding something under her southern-belle charm, or Henry, a mercurial and creative genius. As Jane and Henry draw Tipsy into their conundrum, she uncovers secrets long concealed under layers of good manners, broken promises, and soupy Lowcountry air. But living with ghosts takes a toll on Tipsy's health, and possibly even her sanity. Struggling to forge a new path for herself and her children, she discovers a chance to set Jane and Henry free, and perhaps release the ghosts of her own complex past.
