On the fifth anniversary of the disappearance of his fiancée, the Earl of Darkmoor hopes to drink himself into oblivion to forget his loneliness and pain. Instead, something miraculous happens—Lady Raven Winthrop returns, seeking the earl's forgiveness and love. Is it all a hopeless fantasy brought on by the cold, dark October night, or is the woman standing in front of him actually flesh and blood? If he doesn't claim her now, he'll lose her forever, but if she's just a ghost from his sad past, he'll never recover from the madness.
