exhilarating paranormal Georgian romance

In the latter half of the eighteenth century, as a second son Lord Harry never expected to inherit the estate, but when his father and his older brother die in a brutal accidental fall, he becomes the duke of Sommersville. He also is bequeathed with a large debt and the probability that the estate will go to the major marker holder the odious Carthage. A desperate Harry knows that his hedonistic lifestyle is over and he must marry his long time fiancée the lovely, wealthy, but odd Christina Malcolm Childe if he is to save the estate. Christina can see ghosts and read auras. She is horrified that her beloved Harry has gone from the wonderful happy yellow and purple to the detestable brown and blue. She agrees to wed Harry, but insists he give her time to adapt because she plans to find the Harry she loves not this angry shell. As she begins to save Harry's soul and he recognizes how much he loves Christina, treachery will leave both on the brink of death unless Harry heeds her advice received from his loved ones in the beyond. THIS MAGIC MOMENT is an exhilarating paranormal Georgian romance starring a hurting venomous male and a fabulous heroine risking all for her love. Though the villain seems unlikely, Christina makes the tale with her ESP skills and her heroics. Fans of Ms. Rice's "magical" tales know that this awesome author always provides all a reader wants in a novel. Harriet Klausner
