The past returns to haunt them . . . Recurring, sensual dreams haunt Faith McCoy. The daughter of a minister, she's uncomfortable with the sexy images. While on a trip to the colorful gambling town of Cripple Creek, Colorado, she is shocked and frightened to find not only the room in her dreams, but the man whose touch haunts and excites her. She might consider a modern-day relationship if it weren't for the fact that the room--and her dream--are set in a former brothel. Casino owner Cord Burke has his own dreams of the beautiful woman who seduces him. He never expected her to be real, but when he meets Faith, he's drawn to her and the past that seems to threaten her. He refuses; however, to be drawn to the forevers and promises she represents. He's been burned too many times in life to consider settling down. Suspecting that they may have lived and loved in a prior life, they face the ghost of an old enemy. But how can they beat a ghost who has no fear--not even of death . . . Angel Smits's background as a geriatric social worker has given her a glimpse into many varied lives and generations. She finds her characters and stories in the people she's met. Angel has received the Romance Writers of America Golden Heart award and is a multi-published romance author. Angel lives in Colorado with her husband, daughter, and an overly-energetic border collie.
