Let's see what Margaret has to say about Paramour:
Paramour was inspired by one of my favorite
old movies, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir.
Like Lucy Muir, I fell in love with the ghost of Captain Daniel Gregg. The bit
when Anna told her mother that Captain Gregg used to visit her when she was a
little girl and they had been friends stuck with me.
How cool
would it be to be pals with a ghost? What if she grew up with that ghost in her
room. Would she have fallen in love with him like her mother did? I also liked
the idea of a tortured young hero trapped between worlds.
Here’s an
excerpt from Paramour:
The scent was back, flooding her
senses with the relief of homecoming. She wondered if he knew how many hours
she’d spent at the men’s cologne counter sniffing samples, trying to place the
fragrance. After twenty years of friendship, endless fights, and one
unforgettable kiss, she’d wondered if she finally earned the right to ask
questions.
“Are you really here?” she
whispered, afraid she’d scare him away.
“Yeah.”
Their eyes met, and she tumbled into
the depths of his dark gaze. Cam knew if she didn’t take the chance this time,
she may never have another.
“What cologne do you wear?”
Frank’s eyes narrowed with typical
caution. “Polo.”
“Huh. Smells different on you.”
His thick eyebrows rose, and a
sardonic smile twitched his lips. “Might be because I’m dead.”
Cam swallowed hard and sat up. “I’m
glad you’re here.”
“Welcome home. I’m sorry.”
She shook her head, forcing a small,
flirtatious smile. “Did you miss me?”
“Every damn day.”
“Then don’t leave me again.”
Frank raised his hand. His fingers
twitched. She could feel heat radiating from his palm. Those warm fingers
curved along the contour of her cheek. “I’ll make sure you’re never alone.”
Cam smiled, smoothing her palm over
the rough hairs on the back of his hand. “With you around, how could I be?”
