Ghost Touch
by LA
Dragoni
GENRE: Paranormal
Romance
BLURB:
For fifteen minutes
each night a portal opens in Tamara’s barn and a horde of ghosts spills into
her yard. She and Dex work together to find a way to help Cal and the thousands
of spirits stuck in the void to cross over. When she learns she has the ghost
touch—the ability to touch the ghosts as if they were corporeal—and she
accidentally helps a little boy cross, she believes it might be possible. But
not all the spirits play nice and when they learn they can sip energy from her
ghost touch, they become greedy putting her life at risk.
Each time Cal has to
pull her from the mass of ghosts, her touch restores him more and more until he
is at danger of being stuck on earth—forever, which is very enticing to Tamara
the better she knows him. Will she and Dex figure out how to help the spirits
cross and if they do, will she be able to let Cal go?
Excerpt:
The knot of ghosts hissed and
shrieked as they chased her. Seeing they’d already changed direction, she dug
her fingers into the grass to pull herself away from them. Her legs were as
shaky as a newborn foal and even crawling was too much effort. Ruff stood next
to her, barking, but she knew he’d have no effect. He couldn’t even touch the
ghouls.
Then they were on her. Petting and
pulling, stroking and grabbing at her arms, legs, clothes, hair. Their chatter
became excited, reminding her of a pack of hyenas. She buried her head under
her arms wishing…praying they’d go away.
“Get off her!”
Was that Cal? Tamara raised her head
as much as she could, but was still buried in spirits. She got a glance at a
familiar face before the writhing group closed in again. Was that the drowned
ghost? She looked less bloated.
“Leave her. This will not help. Get
away.”
Slowly the weight lifted from her
until she felt only one pair of hands grasping her upper arms. Gentle and
caring, not demanding.
“Cal,” she croaked, struggling to
raise her head and open her eyes.
“Come on, Tamara. You need to get
up.”
Her eyelids were so heavy. She
couldn’t hold them open. Couldn’t make her neck cooperate so she could look at
Cal.
“Tamara, you need to move him. I
can’t touch him.”
“Let go of me Cal. You’re making it
worse. I think.” Even speaking drained her of energy. It took all she had just
to force the words out, but when Cal let go of her, she felt a difference
immediately. It was as if her strength no longer leaked out of her extremities.
Unfortunately her tank didn’t seem to be refilling very fast. “I…it’s…it’s
better. Give me a minute.”
“We don’t really have a minute,
Tamara.”
