Haunted by her past and reeling from her sister's murder, Jenna Renfield thinks a cruise is just what she needs to get away from all her troubles - including gorgeous, but irritating Dave Runningbear who seems to have nothing better to do with his life than have fun and chase women. Not that he chases her, of course. She’s glad to be the exact opposite of the women who normally fill his bed. One day, if she keeps telling herself that, she’ll actually believe it. When Dave learns that Jenna ignored his warnings about the dangers of traveling alone, he slips aboard the ship and stows away in her cabin. He’s hoping that a little time alone will help her see past his playboy image to the man he really is. Maybe then, he can convince her that she’s a woman worth loving – and not just for a single night. Unfortunately, love may have come too late for them because they soon discover they are trapped on a ghostly cruise ship and death is its destination. Can they find a way to escape before it carries them beyond the mist?
Author
Robin T. Popp grew up watching Star Trek and reading Nancy Drew, Robert Heinlein, Sharon Green and Piers Anthony. She loved the daring and romantic exploits of heroic characters on grand adventures in otherworldly places. It wasn’t long before she wanted to write such tales to share with others. Though she was forced to take a thirty-year detour through the real world – which certainly wasn’t without its share of adventures – armed now with two masters degrees, a fulltime job and a family, she has taken the first steps toward realizing her original dream of becoming an author. Too Close to the Sun, a futuristic romance published in July 2003, was her first novel. Out of the Night is her second novel and represents her first foray into another of her favorite alternate realities – the realm of vampires. Robin lives southwest of Houston, Texas with her husband, three kids, three dogs, two frogs, one rabbit and a mortgage. She is living the American dream.
