Fresh Fiction "Impossible-to-put-down romance with just the right touch of the ominous, the perfect amount of suspense, and plenty of sexual tension to keep you reading late into the night and finish satiated." Romantic Times "Simpson excels at imbuing her realistic characters with subtle depths" John Charles, American Library Association "a treat for lovers of gothic romance" "There's a natural progression here from the traditional gothic of eerie occurrences with rational explanations to a true paranormal twist, and Simpson keeps the sultry sensuality at a strong simmer."
