The Ghost of Calico Acres

A CONTEMPORARY GOTHIC ROMANCE: Haunting memories lurk in the dark corners of this mysterious walk from the past.

When Dr. Marc St. Clair inherits his eccentric aunt Miriam's old Victorian house in southwestern Wisconsin, her Will states that he and his invalid wife, Summer, must live in the house for one year before they can own it. Despite the fact that Calico Acres is rumored to be haunted, Marc accepts Miriam's generous offer without telling Summer, who would prefer to remain at her parents' comfortable estate in Iowa.

Summer grew up the spoiled daughter of a Chemistry professor who would stop at nothing to grant her every wish. Then along comes Dr. Marc St. Clair with his special brand of hot chemistry, hoping to match the young woman's own desires. But although he was educated in the art of healing human bodies, Marc finds he is lost when it comes to curing his wife's emotions, especially after a disastrous honeymoon and a riding accident leaves her confined to a wheelchair, bitter and full of self-pity.

Summer hates the old house with its eleven-foot ceilings and dark hallways when she arrives at Calico Acres with Marc and their elderly housekeeper, Josephina, on a cold, snowy day in January. She's infuriated that her husband has brought her to an area of Wisconsin noted for ghostly hauntings, a place far from her doting parents. It's a good thing she doesn't know there's a family cemetery on the property-if she met Aunt Miriam's ghost face to face while confined to her wheelchair, she'd probably die of fright.

*A sequel is in the works
