Love's Torment
This is #1 of the Haunted Book series by esteemed novelist, Paige Turner.
Sasha Lerouvia is betrothed through her wealthy father to be married to an Iruvian prince by the name of Drav Izenport, but she is in love with another, her house's Driver, a Skovlander by the name of Arden Quinn. She finds that Drav harbors feelings for another back home in U'Duasha. They agree to keep up appearances, allowing Sasha to meet with her Driver. A steamy encounter occurs in the family carriage.
As time passes, the game of pretend turns into something real between Sasha and Drav, although neither will admit it to each other. Sasha then learns that Arden is a part of a dangerous rebel faction, pressured into it by his family. She is distraught with worry, when she confides in Drav, who reveals that he broke off things with his love interest in U'Dasha because of his feelings for her. He then comforts her, vigorously.
In the morning, her father, almost in passing, delivers word that their regular driver (Arden) was killed in a raid of Skov rebels. Feeling guilt for seeking comfort in the arms of Drav during Arden's death, she decides to throw herself off of her family's private dock, to be taken by the Void Sea. However, at the end of the dock, Arden's Ghost pulls her back at the last second. Overwhelmed by seeing him again, and secumbing to the visceral hunger of his ghost, they make love right there on the docks. How will Sasha get out of this? Who will she choose? Does she have to chose? Find out in the next installment of, Haunted.
