Rose meets Leon, the strong, muscular ghost with the deep set grey eyes and Greek god body. Wrongfully executed hundreds of years ago, he roams her home in search of someone who can bring back honor to his name. Rose should be afraid of him, but she can't help but crave his presence and feel his lips on hers. When Leon suddenly vanishes from her home, Rose is heartbroken and inexplicably transports herself back to the year 1583 where she holds the task of preventing his unjustified death, all the while searching for the dark forces that conspire against her and England.
