Shades of Scarlet

IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR

Eve Abernathy and Lucien Thorpe may have — finally — walked down the aisle, but Eve isn't convinced that they're on the path to "happily ever after." Not when she aches to give Lucien a child, which seems to be a dream destined to remain out of her reach...

Yet she can't ignore her maternal longings when the plantation home she and Lucien have been asked to investigate is haunted by the ghost of a young boy who mournfully asks if Eve is his mother. And especially not when a former paramour of Lucien's arrives to present him with the son he never knew he had. As the spirits in the house grow more restless, Eve and Lucien face the unexpected task of raising a boy who exhibits his father's otherwordly talent for speaking to the dead. But before Eve can learn to love her darling husband's son, she must resist the spectral plea of another motherless child...
