Ghost Dancer [1]

When Nina Azure’s talent as a ghost dancer doesn’t persuade a handsome phantom to talk, she entices him with sizzling sexual energy.

Ben Moore’s spirit is tied to this world with guilt, but he breaks his self-imposed silence for the beautiful Nina. Lust makes him fully physical and she loses herself to desire.

She must help him carry on to the afterlife, but her attraction to him is immensely powerful. She must push aside her own feelings and let him go—and perhaps find romance among the living.

Poltergeist's Pleasure [2]

Claire McKinney has a theory that poltergeists aren't evil spirits or negative energy. When she locates a powerful vortex at the center of a haunting, she discovers a gorgeous man trapped inside. Zendal cannot escape on his own, but if Claire can create enough sexual energy with him, he will be able to break free.

Intense as their passion is, it does not release him from the vortex. Claire finds herself caught not only by the ominous portal, but by Zendal’s carnal zeal as well.

Can she extricate them both from the trap or will they forever be its prisoners?

Lovelorn Spirits [3]

Vivian Ray does not like working with the suave Miles Walker, but he’s the best medium in the paranormal business.

When they are possessed by a pair of passionate ghosts, Vivian and Miles realize they might have feelings for one another. But it’s difficult to separate their own emotions from the spirits’, and Vivian doesn't want to believe she’s in anything more than lust with Miles.

There’s something much more dangerous after them, though, and if they can’t help the ghosts work through their past, the investigators could lose their own lives.

Excerpt

     The smoke smell became stronger. Vivian put a hand over her nose and made a slow circle to catch the entire room with the camera. Maybe if they were lucky, they’d catch the orbs zipping about or even a full-body apparition.
     She faced Miles and made certain he was in the center of her camera screen. “It did happen in here. What else are you feeling?”
     He rubbed his face. Once, twice and then three times. “Life was so good when they were together. She was his light.”
     Something zipped by out of the corner of her eyes. Vivian tensed and stepped closer to Miles.
     Coughing, he yanked at his tie. When it didn’t budge, he did so more frantically and knocked his camera askew.
     “Miles? Are you all right?” The scent of smoke grew thicker and the air drier. Vivian covered her mouth as she coughed, glancing back and forth. No fire. No sign of smoke in the air, but her eyes watered and stung.
     A loud bang on the door made her shriek.
     “Miles!” She reached for him and he grabbed her hand. Her heart raced as she fought to stay in control of her fear.
     “Katherine.” His eyes were wide and shimmering. His usual hard features had softened. A crisp accent transformed his voice into someone else’s. “Katherine, I love you. I love you so much.”
     Good God. He must be channeling the spirit of the husband, Adam Green. And her camera was still running. This was supernatural gold.
     But did she play along to get the ghost to talk?
     Vivian didn’t get a chance to think about it before an orb zoomed down from the ceiling and ran smack into her forehead. The world went momentarily black.
