After a massacre leaves Jaxon Law crippled, he must relearn how to fight-and battle the anger and guilt threatening to overwhelm him.

Book Description
Charley sees dead people. That’s right, she sees dead people. And it’s her job to convince them to “go into the light.” But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (i.e. murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice. Complicating matters are the intensely hot dreams she’s been having about an Entity who has been following her all her life...and it turns out he might not be dead after all. In fact, he might be something else entirely.

 

Romantic Times Rating Method:

Scorcher: Borders of the erotic, very graphic sex.
Hot: Most romance novels fall in this category. Conventional love making, explicit sex.
Mild: May or may not include lovemaking, no explicit sex.
