Could you tell the difference?
Ghosts
are a popular topic on television and the Internet these days. Just look at the
programs and articles that are available. Have you ever seen a ghost? Could you
tell the difference between a ghost, a dream and a real person? The heroine of
my newest paranormal romance, Wait Until Moonrise, has that very problem.
Bria Leighton arrives at Beaumarith Castle seeking
her forgotten past. On the first night, she dreams of a handsome man kneeling
in a pool of moonlight at her balcony door. The next night, she sees that same
man standing in the moonlit ballroom and—when he vanishes before her eyes, she
believes he is a ghost and so flees from him in terror.
Nicholas
Pierce, Earl of Beaumarith, was born in the eighteenth century but has been
trapped in Beaumarith Castle since rejecting the marriage proposal of the
sorceress Saffira. She cursed him to a living death that can be broken only in
the moonlight by his one true love, and he has been trapped in the castle for
more than two hundred years.
Now Bria, unlike anyone else, can see him. She can
hear him, can even touch him. She must be the one true love who can free him.
But she believes he is a ghost or a figment of her imagination. Can Nicholas
convince Bria that he is neither ghost nor dream? That he is real and is
destined to free him from the curse? Can Bria resist her growing attraction to
the handsome specter or will she accept that he is real and then give up the
life she had planned—and the flesh and blood fiancé who desperately needs her?
In spite of her fear, Bria falls for the charming
specter that only she can see, but even as she comes to accept that Nicholas is
real, she resists because she’s already engaged to be married. Meanwhile, eerie
happenings prove that Saffira is still alive and plotting once more to claim Nicholas.
She threatens to destroy anyone who gets in her way…beginning with Bria.
How would you react upon seeing a handsome specter
in a moonlit castle? Could you stand your ground when facing what appears to be
a spirit…at least long enough to find out what it really is? Have you ever had
such an experience that you’d like to share in the comment section below?
Wait Until Moonrise has won the Emily Award
for best paranormal romance, and has placed in other contests before it was
published in May. It is the book of my heart, one I kept back from the world
until what I hoped was the perfect time.

Sounds like a cool story. If I saw a ghost I'd be trying to persuade myself it was a dream. I'm not very brave :)
Very cool premise! I would definitely investigate....I've always wanted to try ghost hunting :)
I went on a ghost hunt once...loads of fun but too many people. I'd like to do a private one with the Ghost Hunters or Ghost Adventures crews some time.
