The Candlewood Wraith — Mychael Black

Two hundred years ago, Noah Cunningham watched in horror as his secret lover's new wife, Mary Bishop, dripped blood on his doorstep and cursed him. Doomed to spend eternity as a wraith to the outside world, Noah has only his dog, Elsa, and a journal to keep him from going insane.

Sam Locke should have died. His wife, Mary, had certainly intended it. The vampiric witch turned him, then left him for dead. Sam's determination to warn his lover Noah kept him going, but Mary found Noah first.

Now, two centuries and many failed relationships later, Sam is still pining over his love. When he stumbles onto a rain-soaked border collie, he takes the dog home. She is the catalyst that leads him to the one place he didn't know still existed...and two custom baskets from Sundae's...to having the one person he never thought he'd see again.
