| Buy Ghost of a Chance HERE! |
by Deena Remiel
What if
your spouse got so angry, that besides divorcing you, they cursed you and
turned you into a ghost of who you are? No hypothesizing necessary for Remy
Charles. His ex-wife did just that!
Holy cow!
Can’t a ghost get a little love around here?! Well, to be fair, Remy wasn’t the
husband of the year when he first married. He was busy getting his fledgling
company off the ground, leaving his wife along most of the time. There’s only
so much a woman can take before she’s had enough. Right? But, after being
cursed, he realized the error of his ways and tried to apologize. She wanted
nothing of it.
COLD. Real
cold.
There have
been plenty of couples who have suffered similar destruction to their relationships.
But all is not lost for our resident ghost. A light at the end of the tunnel
comes in the form of a dating service, Madame Eve’s 1 Night Stand, and a
woman, Susannah, who’s been ghosting through her own life and is ready to be
present again.
So can a
ghost get a little love? I’m thinking there may be a Ghost of a Chance that for both parties, the answer is yes…
EXCERPT:
“Will you join me over here or shall I
join you in the mysterious shadows?”
“You’re lovely over there. Stay. The
way the light plays against your hair and sparkles in your eyes, well…you’re
breathtaking, Susannah.”
Rendered speechless by his intensity,
she stood as still as the statue they spoke of, and… blushed. Her cheeks were
on fire! Get a grip, Susannah! “Thank
you. I….I, heck.” She blew out a breath and started again. “Come over here so
we can sit and get better acquainted.”
He still didn’t move. Is he so shy that he hides behind trees and
in shadows?
“Do you think I’ll get to see you
before the night is over?” She heard a soft chuckle. Good, maybe a little humor will loosen him up.
“Perhaps. I’m a bit nervous, as you can
no doubt tell. I haven’t had any success with this kind of thing before.”
She took a step toward him—she would have
to be the aggressor. “Neither have I, and I’m a little nervous, too.”
“You mentioned in your bio you were
interested in a magical experience. One that would ‘sweep you away’.” His voice
cracked, and he cleared his throat.
“Yes, I am.” She inched closer to the
frozen, outlined figure.
“Before you take another step, you
should know I’m different.”
“I read in the New York Times that you
became reclusive about ten years ago. You’ve taken great strides toward ending
that by being here now.”
“There’s a reason why I keep to myself.
It may startle you, so be prepared. I am very much on the magical side of this
world at the moment.”
Before she could move, he did, which
brought him out of the shadows and into the light. Susannah gasped, startled at
the transparency of the man who stood before her. Nervous laughter bubbled in
her throat.
“What is this, some kind of joke? A
holographic image projected here while you hide safe and secure in your room?”
“I’m afraid not. I’ve been living an
alternative lifestyle lately.” He opened his arms as if to show himself off and
let them fall back to his sides. “And this is all I am. I’m a ghost of a man,
Susannah.”
