The Mortician of Maple Hollow (The Maple Hollow Spirit #1)
Clara Whitmore
THE MORTICIAN OF MAPLE HOLLOW
A Cozy Paranormal Romance
In the quiet town of Maple Hollow, Eliza Graves has spent years helping others move on—while quietly standing still herself.
As the town’s mortician, Eliza listens to the stories the dead leave behind and gently guides lingering spirits toward peace. Her days are calm, predictable, and safe. She believes she has chosen this life.
Then Margaret appears.
Unlike the spirits Eliza usually helps, Margaret doesn’t ask to cross over. Instead, she asks questions Eliza has avoided for years—about love, about longing, and about the quiet cost of never choosing more.
At the same time, a mysterious letter arrives, offering Eliza a future far beyond Maple Hollow. Recognition. Opportunity. A life she once believed she was meant to want.
And standing quietly at the edge of it all is Thomas, a steady presence who asks for nothing—but changes everything.
Now Eliza must face the question she’s spent a lifetime avoiding:
Is stillness the same as belonging?
And is it ever too late to choose again?
The Mortician of Maple Hollow is a warm, gentle paranormal romance about second chances, emotional healing, and the courage it takes to claim the life that is already happening.
