3 Paranormal Romance Stories: Seeing is Believing by Lindsay McKenna, Storm-Tossed by Lee Karr, and The Ancient One by Rachel Lee.

"Seeing is believing" is about a sensitive psychic and a war weary-mercenary. The two go on a quest to find a missing person. The relationship develops between the two of them (this was more romance than the other two) -- the hardened mercenary learns to share his feelings and rekindles the sensitivity in his soul. Along the way Diana experiences different psychic feelings which Wes, who only believes in what he can see or touch, learns to trust and respect. When they reach their goal the conclusion is one that is completely different from what you would expect.

"Storm-tossed" is a ghost story that starts with a few people left behind in a hurricane to fend for themselves. A mysterious person arrives on the scene with the main focus of trying to save these people from certain death. This person arrives out of no-where, and one of the people he is trying to save believes he is a ghost. The writing makes you feel and hear the storm around them -- well written. It has a touching and unexpected conclusion.

"The Ancient One" is a story of good and evil and ancient wonders -- with mythical qualities. There is a mysterious village that can only be seen by a certain trick of the moon. The main character finally finds her way there and that's when the battle between good and evil begins. It deals with keeping a horrible evil entombed away from the world.
