ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Chapter One

I can't believe your husband is angry with you, Lana Malloy said to her new client, Angelina Fuentes. After all, he died almost a year ago and hasn't haunted you until now. He hasn't assaulted you or anything like that, has he?

No, Senorita. My Mario only moves things to where I can't find them. He wants me to lose my mind or something. A tear trailed down her cheek. Why does he do this?"

Angelina, of Spanish lineage, had long black hair and eyes almost as dark. A young woman who'd lost her husband way too soon.

Lana closed the space between them, holding Angelina's hands between her own as she sat beside her on the cloth, flowered sofa. Angelina's lavender scent permeated the air around them. That's not Mario's intentions at all. She closed her eyes to concentrate. He came back to try to help you. To let you know it's okay to live your life and maybe one day to marry and be happy again. Little Mario needs a male influence in his life, too.

Why does he say this? Does he not love me?

It's because he does love you that he wants you to have a happy life. Even when that life must be without him.

Mario, who had been watching and listening all along, became irritated at Lana. Why can't you get through to her? She has to understand that she can love again. That I won't be angry if she moves on.

Lana nodded her head to let Mario know she understood. Mario floated closer to her, looked down at his wife, his dark eyes brooding sadly. Mario was still a handsome man. She understood Angelina missed her husband dearly and she may not be ready to move as Mario wanted her to do.

Angelina broke down. I can't. Mario was . . . is my everything. Her shoulders shook as she sobbed loudly. Lana would never get used to the emotional strain of dealing with broken hearts.

Mario pushed his fingers through his dark hair with a grimacing look on his face. Lana couldn't make out the jumble of thoughts that ran through his mind. He appeared to contemplate what to do or say next in order to help her convince Angelina. Then a sudden whirl of cold air surrounded Lana. A suffocating iciness spread throughout her chest. She wanted to scream but couldn't.

What about Rodriquez?

At the sound of Mario's voice, Angelina jerked her head upward. She searched the room before bringing a frightened gaze back to settle on Lana. Where did that come from? she asked, her voice unsteady.

Lana knew what was happening but was incapable of stopping it. This was a first for her. Never had one of the spirits sent his voice through her.

From me. Lana felt her lips move beyond her control, but the voice wasn't her own. She was a bit leery of this herself. One thing was certain; Mario planned to get his point across. At first, she'd been stunned by the change, but then she struggled to reclaim control. Frustration overcame her as she tried as hard as she could to dispel the presence manipulating her.

When Angelina stared at Lana, she squinted causing wrinkles to form around her ordinarily youthful eyes. She snatched her hands from Lana's, jumped out of her seat, clutched her rosary to her chest, crossed herself and backed away, praying to herself silently. Don't be afraid. It is only me, your beloved husband. I won't harm you.

Angelina stared at Lana in disbelief. Is it really you, Mario? What do you mean? Rodriguez knows we can only be friends.

Why?

Because he's your best friend and I love you. I always will.

Rodriguez has loved you for a long time, even before I did.

I swear, Mario, Rodriquez and I, we . . . I . . . never did anything to shame our marriage.

"My poor Angelina, I know that. This is not what I mean. He is a true friend and you, a loving and loyal wife. But I'm
