Book Description
Imogen Drake is a willful daughter, one who would marry a man of good humor rather than obey her parents and marry a studious Colonel. But marriage is not all her parents have in mind for her. They want her to have a tutor to train her to be a proper lady wife!
When Dougal Weston comes into her life, Imogen assumes he is the man sent to instruct her from her rebellious ways. However, with his arrival at Rothfield Park comes an abundance of unrested spirits—a beautiful young girl whose body turns into a frightfully burnt corpse, a bold knight on a horse whose heart literally bleeds from his chest. Suddenly, Imogen doesn’t know who is alive and who is dead. Why have they come now? And what are they trying frantically to tell her? Imogen must discover the truth about the eerie night mist that surrounds the manor before it comes to claim everyone she holds dear….
Rating: Contains sexual content and some graphic violence.

"Five Hearts! Ms. Pillow offers a sweet, often poignant, sometimes funny story that on the surface is about love, life and death. The reader has two choices when reading this story: he or she may choose just sit back and enjoy a wonderful paranormal romance, or, as this reviewer did, sit and ponder all the possibilities Ms. Pillow raises.... This reviewer read Mists of Midnight twice: once to read and enjoy and once to truly sit and ponder the “what ifs” raised in this emotionally moving yet fun story." Gina, Love Romances
