Historical fiction – 1947 rural Missouri
A shocking proposal that changes everything.
Desperate to honor his father’s dying wish, Layken Martin vows to do whatever it takes to save the family farm.
World War II is over and he returns to Missouri to find his legacy in shambles and in jeopardy. A foreclosure notice from the bank doubles the threat. He appeals to the local banker for more time—a chance to rebuild, plant, and harvest crops and time to heal far away from the noise of bombs and gunfire.
The banker makes an alternative proposition—marry his unwanted daughter, Sara Beth, in exchange for a two-year extension. Out of options, money, and time, Layken agrees to the bargain.
If he fails, he’ll lose it all.

GHOSTLY INTERFERENCES
Ghostly Interference is the first book in the White Rune Series by Jan Sikes, a perfect read for fans of romance and the paranormal. A beautiful, heart-warming story that follows the path to love traveled by two characters with opposite personalities. Jan Sikes did a wonderful job in writing strong characters, making them both genuinely flawed, each of them possessed by their fears, worries, and misgivings about the world they live in. Ghostly Interference is written in gorgeous prose, featuring well-crafted dialogues that enhance the plot with strong themes of love, family, and humanity.
Sikes’ third-person point of view is incredibly effective. It allows the reader to get in and out of the minds of other characters as it is not limited to a single point of view. Amidst the danger, jealousy, mysticism, and romantic ideals, Ghostly Interference conveys a clear message of what it feels like to find love in the most unexpected place.
