Leslie Braddock feels responsible for her husband’s death. She is having trouble reentering the dating scene. Leslie travels back in time where she meets Sir James.

Sir James Winford is a three-time widower. He believes he is cursed, and is certain death to any woman he loves. He has vowed never to love again.

Emily, the ghost of Sir James's first wife has unfinished business, and still lingers at Winford Manor. She wants to see her husband happy, and she wants to bring her murderer to justice.

Rose has loved Sir James since childhood. She must live with the unspeakable things she has done trying to make James see her as more than a child. She believes she is close to achieving that goal when Leslie shows up.

Leslie and Sir James share the experience of losing a loved one. Will Leslie be the woman to break the curse? Or will she be just another victim.

Teaser/Excerpt
Margaret watched as Leslie moved fully into her line of sight. “My,” Margaret said, suppressing her surprise. “I hadn’t realized fashion has changed so much since I was last in town.”

“I, umm.” Leslie looked down at her jeans.

“Never mind, dear, we will find something for you.” She turned to her son. “Have the maid go into the attic and bring down Emily’s trunks. They are about the same size.”

Sir James frowned but pulled the cord for the butler. “Must it be Emily’s things, Mother?”

“Yes, dear, she has no use for them anymore.”

“Quite right, Mother,” the ghost standing behind Margaret agreed. “I never did like them rotting away in the attic.”

“Yes, I know, dear,” Margaret replied.

“What did you say, Mother?”

“Nothing, dear.” She turned her head and glanced at Emily. “I simply must remember not to answer you. Everyone thinks I’m going senile,” she mouthed.
