Although Ophelia Garrett loved Cade Scott first, it was her sister he married and took home to his plantation. When Ophelia receives word of her sister's murder and Cade's arrest, she travels there on a mission to learn the truth. She soon finds the halls of Almenara are haunted by secrets, peril, and quite possibly her sister's ghost. Despite the cold, angry man Cade has become, Ophelia's heart refuses to believe he is a murderer. Vowing to do everything she can to prove his innocence, Ophelia must open wounds she'd hoped were long healed and face the feelings that still burn between her and Cade. As everyone looks to Cade as the suspect, evil haunts the dunes and halls of Almenara, bringing death to two more young women and forcing Ophelia to confront the danger.

Sidra Martin not only can't remember her childhood before she was found on a Florida roadside and placed in a foster home, she can't understand why she dislikes-no, make that fears-Christmas trees and anything else to do with the holiday. What is wrong with her? Sidra's boss, Private Investigator Levi Tanner, is used to digging up skeletons, but not in his own backyard, so to speak. When he foils the kidnapping of his pretty, unassuming secretary, the skeletons that tumble out of her closet can't be ignored. Suddenly Sidra is a long-lost princess, and being kidnapped is the least of the dire threats she faces. Levi may be the only one who can keep her safe from the dangers stalking her. Yet while their mutual attraction is undeniable, she must also battle doubts about his motive in protecting her.
