Description

When Amalie Ansett visits her elderly cousin on the Caribbean island of St. Clements, the last thing she’s looking for is romance. Just out of a disastrous marriage, she’s ready to swear off romance forever. That is until she meets local plantation owner, Jonathan Evans -- tall, good looking, and incredibly sexy. What more could a girl ask for?

Then Amalie discovers the man she loves is a ghost. He was murdered two hundred years ago. Only she can see and hear him.

To save Jonathan, Amalie agrees to return with him to the 1800's -- to a time when the sugar trade reigned supreme, and the slave trade was making fortunes for wealthy planters and ship owners. During a slave uprising their love is put to a test, and when murder and deceit rear their ugly heads, Amalie wonders if taking a journey to the past is worth losing her life.

When Amalie Ansett visits her elderly cousin on the Caribbean island of St. Clements, the last thing she’s looking for is romance. Just out of a disastrous marriage, she’s ready to swear off romance...


Advance Praise

Close Encounters of the Night Kind – 5 StarsThis was a book I was literally sucked into and it would not allow me to put in down. I was so completely engrossed in the plot that I literally lost track of time. It was breathtaking, heartbreaking, and so well written that the vividness of the details came to life right before my eyes. This was a heart wrenching love story that brought tears to my eyes many times and reaffirmed my belief that love is truly the most Divine and inspiring gift we can ever hope to receive. I highly recommend this book. Mrs. McDowell you have definitely made a new fan out of me. Hat's off to you for this brilliant creation!!!!!!

Deborah (LoveToReadRomance)'s review - 5 Stars I was fascinated with the history and beliefs of the Caribbean of the 1800's. I read this book in two sittings, I just lost track of time while reading, and that is the sign of a great book to me, if it can "take me away"! Ms. McDowell you definitely have a new fan!

Sassafrass's Reviews - 4 Stars DELIGHTING IN YOUR COMPANY was so interesting. I was intrigued by the blurb because I had no idea how the author was going to pull off the story. I was pleasantly surprised. I think the notion of the island legends and magic help lend to the overall tone of the story. Yes, it's paranormal romance, so you're supposed to suspend reality, but the historical accuracy of the island made the plot even better. This is my first time reading a novel by Blair McDowell, but she got me so wrapped up in the world she created in this book, I don't believe that it will be my last.

Black Hippie Chick’s Take On Books - 5 Stars When I first began this book, I thought that I wouldn’t like it because it dealt with the slave trade. I was delightfully wrong! I found myself sucked in to the story very early on.
