Every night Olivia longs to fall asleep in hopes that once again she’ll be joined by her phantom lover.

Can true love transcend life and death?

Olivia Shaw-Clayton’s life revolves around her job ever since her husband was killed eight months ago in Iraq. She slaves away at her desk in hopes of numbing the pain of her loss and the guilt of longing to fall asleep once again to be joined by her phantom lover.

Olivia was out waiting for her friends
at Vipers after work, when in walked the most gorgeous man that she’d ever seen
wearing an Army uniform. He was tall and built like a god. She watched as he
took off his coat and placed it over his shoulder.  She licked her lips at the sight of him in a
t-shirt.  His huge arms were covered in
tattoos. She knew she was staring, but couldn’t tear her eyes off of him.
Finally, she turned away and took a sip of her almost empty drink. When she
looked up again, she found the most amazing hazel eyes gazing at her. She
thought her heart was going to stop right there. He smiled and began to walk
toward her.

“Hello, my name is Aaron Clayton and I
was wondering if you’d do me the honor of having a drink with me?”  He extended his hand.

Olivia bit her lower lip and took his
hand in hers. He smelled just as good as he looked. It was a mix of amber,
musk, and spice.

“Hi,” she finally sputtered out as he
brought the top of her hand toward his mouth. She cleared her throat. “My name
is Olivia.”

“Nice to meet you, Olivia.” His
smoldering eyes never left hers as he placed a gentle kiss on top of her hand.

 Her heart fluttered and a warm jolt rushed
through her body. A feeling she’d never had before. All her senses seemed at
that moment to be on fire. All she could think, smell or breathe was this
stranger that stood in front of her. She cleared her throat again, in hopes of
snapping herself out of the trance she was in. “I’m meeting my friends, but I’m
early, so a drink sounds great.”

He smiled. My friends are in the back
playing pool, but they can wait.” He winked. “What are you drinking?”

“Gin and tonic, please.”

He leaned toward her. “I’ll be right
back,” he whispered in her ear.

A shiver went down her spine and her
stomach fluttered as she watched him walk toward the bar. By God his ass is
fine! Her mind swirled with all the things she would like to do to that body.
Get a grip. Olivia. You just met him and you already want to jump his bones.
Olivia looked around the bar and noticed that most of the girls’ eyes were on
Aaron. Jealousy spiked through her veins but at the same time she felt a little
smug that he'd walked up to her. Now all she needed to do was figure out how to
get to know him better. If she had her way she would be underneath him by the
end of the night.

“Here you go,” he said as he handed her a
drink. “So, Olivia, tell me about yourself?”

 She quickly glanced around at all the other
females glaring at her and a large smirk crossed her lips. Ladies, eat your
heart out! He’s talking to me. She quickly focused her attention on the god in
front her, smiling at her with the sexiest dimples she’d ever seen, and she melted.
