Phantom
Lover by Tamaria Soana
Morning
and thanks for having me on your site today!
I’m
here to tell you about my newest release Phantom Lover. The idea for Phantom
Lover came to me one day last year while I was driving and Sweet Dreams by Beyoncé came on. I couldn’t get the idea out of a phantom lover of sorts
out of my end, so I began to hash out the story.

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.
Phantom
Lover is erotic short story with a paranormal twist!
Read an Except:
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.
