Synopsis (Goodreads):
RETURN TO THE FASCINATING WORLD OF HARMONY...

Where deadly energy ghosts lurk in the ruins of an ancient alien civilization. Where dust bunnies prove to be loyal pets. And where a ghost hunter will discover that a woman's heart is the most dangerous adversary of all...

Local Guild boss and powerful ghost-hunter Cooper Boone is everything botanist Elly St. Claire could ask for-the handsome, strong, and silent type. Maybe too silent. For when Guild secrets threaten her career at the college, Elly has to call off their marriage-and leave small-town life behind...

But starting over in the thriving metropolis of Cadence City isn't easy, especially when one of Elly's new friends disappears in the eerie catacombs beneath the streets. Cooper turns up just in time to help Elly investigate. And as the mystery deepens and dangerous ghost myths and legends come to light, Cooper makes it clear he intends to stick around-and this time he's holding nothing back...
Thoughts on Ghost Hunter: Okay. We're back on Harmony with their alien ruins and catacombs and ghosts and amber. This time around we have Cooper and Elly, a failed engagement, Guild secrets (there are ALWAYS Guild secrets, aren't there?), and some dangerous shenanigans taking place.

Elly is trying to move her life forward after she had to break things off with Cooper. She had a certain picture of what their life together would be and now she's trying to make new life for herself after her picture came crashing down. Which isn't to say she's not into Cooper (because she REALLY is), but she wanted to be more than just arm candy or a politically advantageous merger to him. So she broke things off and fled to a different city.

Cooper, on the other hand, mostly suffers from a distinct inability to share. He can't share Guild secrets and he didn't want to scare Elly off by coming on too strong so he played it cool. Unfortunately that left her thinking he didn't want her. Which isn't true AT ALL.

So he shows up in the big city to woo his lady and suddenly they're smack-dab in the middle of all those pesky Guild secrets. A little danger, a little sexy after burn, and BOOM these two are in deep. BY that I mean they're in deep with the danger and with one another. NICE!
