      Could she lead him to the one thing he’d missed when he was alive?

      Ever since her husband died in Afghanistan, shape-shifter Anabel Lee has been haunted—by every ghost except the one she longs to see. But when Tyler Rogers appears, Anabel senses something different about him. It’s not just his piercing blue eyes or sexy voice. Even though he’s a ghost, Tyler is more real than anyone she’s met in years.

      Tyler needs Anabel’s help. His sister has been abducted by a powerful warlock, and he can sense her light fading fast. Confined to the spirit realm, he needs to join his powers with Anabel’s to bring his sister back from the darkness. As they work together against time and magic, will they discover a passion strong enough to bridge this world and the next?

       “You look … glowing,” Tyler said, realising he sucked at compliments.

      “Thank you. I guess.” Her smile made her aura illuminate even brighter, making a glowing halo around her head.

      For whatever reason, he felt the need to elaborate. “I don't just mean your aura, though yours is spectacular. But your human form is beautiful.”

      Anabel's smile widened, making her whiskey eyes sparkle. “Wow. Thanks. You kind of made my day.”

      He found himself smiling back. Maybe he wasn't so bad at this complimenting thing after all.

      He let his gaze drink her up, his entire body burning. Funny how he still felt as if he had a body, even though he didn't. Even when she turned away, completely unaware of his desire, he tracked her with his gaze.

      Focus, he reminded himself. He'd come back for a reason, to save Dena, not ache for a woman he could never have.

      Dear Reader,

      Sometimes life can spin you around and mix you up. Often everything you thought you knew was true turns out to be a lie. For Anabel Lee, who appeared in The Wolf Siren, this is especially true. Her loneliness and sorrow inspired her to make a few bad decisions.

      Even as she regrets the wrong choices she made, she wonders if she’s truly going crazy. I mean, who else can see and hear ghosts? She sends each one away, until the shade of a handsome man appears asking for her help and refuses to go.

      Tyler Rogers had been stationed in Afghanistan with Anabel’s deceased husband when he lost his life, too. Yet the instant he learns his baby sister, Dena, has been taken captive by a psychopath, he reaches out to whoever can hear him. Anabel Lee.

      As they work together in a race against time, Anabel draws on untapped talents and strengths. And as for Tyler, he finds the one thing he’d been missing when he was alive. Love.

      I adore stories with seemingly insurmountable odds. I hope you enjoy this romance!

      Karen Whiddon

      Once again, to my husband. I can never thank him enough for loving me and supporting me.

      He is a special man and I love him very much.

      The man appeared in her peripheral vision, just like all the others who had come before. A hazy shape, flickering into mist before solidifying somewhat. Her black cat, Leroy, hissed his usual back-arched warning. Anabel Lee clenched her teeth and ignored the apparition, willing the ghost’s ethereal form to dissipate so she wouldn’t have to look at him.

      Or worse, hear him try to speak to her. Mentally, she cringed. The voices were what bothered her the most. Whispers and muffled laughter. Wisps СКАЧАТЬ
