This collection of short stories takes place in the time between the second novel, "Heart of Shadows " and the third "Spellbound," and tell stories that, while not long enough for their own full-length novel, are every bit as intriguing and romantic, while delving in to the heart of the paranormal world.

Meet murdered Gilded Age heir Benjamin Westmore in “You Don't Know Me,” as he nurses fellow ghost Bridget Austin back to health - relatively speaking, of course, since she is dead. While living together at Windswept, his family's Newport, Rhode Island, mansion, can Benjamin help Bridget discover her place in their shared ghostly world before she crosses over to the "other side" forever? In “Where My Heart Will Take Me,” meet Anastasia, a one-time European princess now trapped in a hideous monster's body. Can GI investigator Noah Callahan see past her beastly form to the beauty within and find a way to free her from the curse that has haunted her for centuries? Brave the world of Ryan Frost, a Dark Reaper in search of injured souls in “Cold As Ice” as he attempts to rescue Russian immigrant Tatiana Belkov from the clutches of a madman intent on using Ana's talents for his own personal gain. Can Ryan save Ana before she succumbs to the madness or is the woman Ryan is destined to love already so lost inside of her own mind that there's no bringing her back? Feel the pull of love across time in “Lovers In A Dangerous Time,” as executed American Revolutionary War spy, Ethan Cole, rides to the rescue of Philadelphia historical site docent Natalie Baldwin. Can Ethan find a way back from beyond the grave with the help of the ever-expanding GI staff, or are he and Natalie doomed to be lovers out of time forever?
