This was a really great romantic story. Due to the circumstances of the plot there was a nice solid build up of romantic intent between the two main characters. If you'd like a story that isn't so focused on the "act" this is the book for you! I'm really looking forward to another by this author. Due out on 11/06/07 is Into Thin Air ISBN 0451222628
From the back of the book:
When Tristan de BArre and his men were murdered in 1292, their souls were cursed to roam his estate for all eternity. It's been a long, dull, celibate ever after. But now Tristan's phantom heart is pounding again for the first time in more than seven hundred years because of the beautiful scientist who's digging up his castle's bailey. Can he make her notice him, or will she see straight through him?
The opportunity to excavate the remains at Dreadmoor Castle has forensic archaeologist Andi Monroe tingling with excitement. It's an incredible find and a chance to study the mysterious legend of Dragonhawk, a medieval knight who disappeared without a trace. Lately, though, rational Andi is having a hard time telling fact from fiction. She could just swear she met the vanished knight, and he's a fantasy come true. But until she finds a way to help Tristan lift the curse, their love doesn't stand a ghost of a chance....

Loved it. Looking forward to reading more by this author. A real pager turner, not erotic but full of romance and mystery.

Absolutely LOVED this book! The plot is unusual and the characters are well written. Even the "mystery" aspect of it kept me turning the pages. Even if you don't normally read "paranormal" (I don't) read this one, you won't regret it.
