A dark cloud of deceit
hovers over her family tree...
Left an estate by an aunt she’s never met, Laurel Standridge
takes possession of Laurel Heights, hoping it will be the safe haven she needs
to recuperate from her ill-fated relationship with Rand Peterson. Secrets long
buried rise to the surface when her cousin James is murdered and dumped on the
highway just outside the gates of Laurel Heights.
Her past trails her to
the mountains of Arkansas...
Caught in an obligation Chase Peterson feels he cannot ignore,
he agrees to help his brother Rand take back the property he believes Laurel
stole from him, but Chase remains at Laurel Heights after he discovers Laurel
took nothing of Rand’s away with her except nightmares, fading bruises, and a
broken rib.
Unexplained disturbances
shatter her hopes of a normal life...
Are the strange bumps, thumps, and bangs reverberating through
the night caused by the murderer of Laurel’s cousin James, someone Rand has
sent to exact his revenge, or a disturbed soul existing in another dimension,
trying to communicate with the living? Drawn together by the intrigue
surrounding Laurel Heights, Chase and Laurel become hopelessly entangled in a
relationship that goes deeper than lust. Can their love survive the haunting of
Laurel Heights?

Snippet #6
She shivered with apprehension. The structure was derelict,
unlike her garage in California. The four-car garage had been attached to
Rand’s half million-dollar house. They had been living in the two-story,
five-bedroom house for at least a year, but the place had never seemed like
home to Laurel. Everything belonged to Rand. By the end of their disastrous
relationship, he had treated her like a possession as well. Actually, maybe he
had all along.
Comparing her life then to her life now brought up memories of
the beating Rand had given her and his attempt to attack her again. If Foster
hadn’t shown up when he did, she’d probably be dead.

Want to know a little bit more about Denise? She's a Southern
girl who has lived in Louisiana all her life, and yes, she has a drawl. She has
a wonderful husband and two incredible children, who not only endure her
writing moods, but also encourage her to indulge her writing passion. Besides
writing romantic suspense, she enjoys traveling, reading, and scrapbooking.
Accounting is a skill she has learned to earn a little money to
support her writing habit. She wrote her first story when she was a teen,
seventeen handwritten pages on school-ruled paper and an obvious rip-off of the
last romance novel she had read. She's been writing off and on ever since, and
with more than a few full-length manuscripts already completed, she has no desire
to slow down.
