Book description
When Alastair Romilly de Vere accepts a dare to spend a night in a
haunted folly, it's not the prospect of a ghostly presence that he finds
daunting. Alastair is desperately in love with his cousin's fiancé,
Jude, the man who is to be his companion for the night; an attraction
that he dare not confess. When a spirit trapped within the folly takes
possession of Jude seeking to end a century of torment. Can Alastair
face his fears, in order to save the man he loves? For only by
surrendering his body, will he win freedom for them all. Reader

Madelynne Ellis was born in the North-East of England, a bleak but
starkly beautiful place, and the obvious setting for her first novel.
She began writing in 1995 having finally escaped the Hotel California,
the nickname of the Parasitology laboratory where she'd previously
worked. To date, she has four novels and a novella published with
pioneering British erotica imprint, Black Lace, and has contributed to
several short story anthologies, as well as being a regular contributor
to the Lust Bites Blog. She enjoys writing in a range of genres
including contemporary, paranormal, erotic horror, and yaoi, although
her favourite is Georgian era historicals. 2008 has seen the reprint of
her popular Georgian m/m/f novel, A Gentleman's Wager, and the release
of its highly anticipated sequel, Phantasmagoria. Reviewers have
described her award-winning work as intense, subtle and heartfelt, and
often praise both her well-researched settings and bad boy heroes. Her
aim is to deliver character-driven stories that enchant, torment and
don't avoid the bedroom. Madelynne currently lives in the Midlands not
far from the Welsh border with her partner and two children.
