title: Lost in Shadow (Signet Eclipse)
author:  Jocelyn Kelley 
description: Jade Nethercott's father went to his grave believing in ghosts, and being ridiculed for it. But now she has proof to restore her father's reputation. The ghost of his old student stands before her ready to try to help, for a price. He needs Jade to help catch his murdererLord Bannatyne, his fiance's brotherand protect his beloved's life. Bannatyne is a known rake, and Jade soon finds herself engaged in a battle of wit and wills. Neglected by romance writers in the craze for vampires and werewolves, ghosts are reappearing in paranormal romances, and Kelley offers up a smashing good reason to encourage their comeback. Mixing a Regency romp with a classic gothic plot and a liberal dose of steamy sensuality, Lost in Shadow should be a real find for romance readers. Keep it front and center on your shelf and leave room for the forthcoming Nethercott sister tales. Davis, Nina C.

  Chapter One
  
  
  Carlos let his eyes adjust to the dim light of the stable before he called out
  to his boss.
  
  
  “Mason!”
  
  
  “Back here!” Mason barked.
  
  
  Carlos made his way down the stable aisle toward the back of the long
  building.
  
  
  “Hey, boss, we finished the back pasture.”
  
  
  Mason grunted and continued working without looking up.
