Shades of Midnight - The Shades Trilogy Linda Winstead Jones

Winner of the 2004 RITA for Paranormal Romance!

The only man she would ever love was more fascinated by the dead than he would ever be with her.

Eve Abernathy calls on Lucien Thorpe to assist in ridding her house of the ghosts who haunt it, the amorous ghosts who replay their violent deaths night after night. She tells herself, time and again, that she would never ask for Lucien's help if there was any other option. After all, she has not forgiven him for leaving her waiting at the altar, two years earlier.

Lucien still loves Eve, still wants her, but she refuses to listen to reason. He didn't forget her, he simply got engrossed in his work and let a day slip by, and it appears that she will never forgive or forget. Always different, always the odd man out, he knows Eve is the only woman for him.

As Lucien and Eve work together to send two earthbound spirits to the other side, they rediscover love. They also uncover a murder mystery that threatens not only their happiness, but their very lives.
