Antiquities expert, Laurel Saville, leaves Chicago to visit her best friend in the romantic Scottish Highlands. She is saved from a tragic fall by the ghostly Simon. Once she realizes she is not crazy, she pledges to help him find his family’s missing artifact. A pledge hindered by treasure hunter Alex MacKenzie, a descendant of the clan that murdered Simon.
Laurel risks everything, including her life, to help Simon resolve the issues keeping him earth bound. But will she lose him forever or is there a way Laurel can keep him with her on this earthly plane?
Excerpt:
The bastard would pay. Though he knew not who his murderer be, Simon saved his last thoughts to curse his enemy.
The water closed over his head, submerging him into a liquid world. He held his breath, willing the water to retreat, but the sea would not be cheated.
His lungs burned, tears squeezed from his closed eyes, and mingled unseen in his watery prison. He bit his lips, drawing blood in his effort not to breathe, but his body betrayed him.
Purely reflexive, his mouth gasped open sucking in air for his oxygen-starved lungs. All they received was the cold water of the north Atlantic.
On the second inhalation, his body started to convulse when the ocean filled his lungs.
On the third, Simon MacKay drowned.
