After Dark — Kris Norris

Temperance Dunnigan can't believe she's agreed to travel to New Orleans to be part of Avery Smith's special ghost hunting squad -- and in the midst of Mardi Gras no less. There isn't a sane reason to be there…other than Avery. Though she considers him a spoiled, rich kid, his money is her ticket to finally getting some concrete evidence to lay the eternal question of spirits to rest.

Avery didn't think twice about inviting one of the foremost paranormal investigators to his retreat. After all, Temperance is smart, daring and totally not his type. He's more than aware of her feelings toward him and embraces the chance to work with someone he has absolutely no interest in…that is until she becomes entrenched in a deadly summoning. Saving her life wasn't part of the plan, and now he can't stop his heart from racing every time she looks at him. They've got one week to figure it out before all hell breaks loose, and Avery loses more than just his reputation.
