Product Description
Product Description
His legendary spirit is restless for revenge. But the touch of one woman could change his mind-and his destiny. An irresistible force. When Jared Beaudry's restless spirit stumbles across a re-enactment of the Civil War battle in which he was murdered and mutilated, he jumps at the chance to find peace at last. Instead, his desperate leap into another man's body triggers a deadly chain of events nothing can stop. An immovable object. Faced with an entire re-enacting unit possessed by spirits of the dead, psychic sensitive Taylor Brannon's first instinct is to run. But she swallows her terror and stands her ground to protect her friends from a ghost who seems hell-bent on revenge and self-destruction. Spontaneous combustion. Jared's powerful spirit touches her in the most deeply guarded depths of her heart, and after one burning night in his arms, Taylor adds another impossible task to her list: To somehow help Beaudry's Ghost find peace. Caught up in a runaway train of events that races inevitably toward one tragic conclusion, Taylor finds herself fighting for the life-and love-of a ghost. The cost could be her soul. Warning: This title contains explicit sex, a couple of recklessly sexy ghosts, bloody battle scenes, spirit possession, and yummy men in uniform.

Beaudry's Ghost, 3 Jan 2000
By Sandy Cummins - Published on Amazon.com
"... and they say the ghost of Union Soldier Jared Beaudry rides the Coast of the Outer Banks to this very day, looking for his lost arm, leg, head. Looking for revenge against Bloody Zachariah Harris, the Confederate Lieutenant who took them and his honor by shooting him in the back."....Jared can't believe his ears, these soldiers are talking about HIM. How do they know about all these years that he has suffered; riding his horse along the coast, compelled to endlessly return to the lighthouse at Cape Hatteras, the scene of his death?
Who are these men, dressed in Confederate Uniforms, armed with Confederate weapons? Has his chance for revenge against his murderer finally arrived?
Unbeknown to Lieutenant Jared Beaudry, he is watching re-enactors, men who relive history and act out the 1860's army life and battles. Among these men hides a woman. A woman battling her own demons. Grieving the tragic death her twin brother Troy, she has taken his place, and wearing his uniform has joined the ranks of the Confederate Army.
Jared is determined to use this re-enactment to regain the honor that he lost in 1862. With the help of Troy's ghost, an unwilling "body" and the grieving Miss Taylor Brannon, his objective is finally within his grasp.
But when his plans go horribly wrong, the entire group of re-enactors are put in mortal danger. Can Jared salvage the situation and find eternal peace?
Taylor, gifted or cursed by the ability to see ghosts (except the one she most longs to see), realises what is happening and wants to help. But in helping will she have to sacrifice the romantic feelings she and Jared are beginning to feel?
This is one paranormal romance where the reader will be kept in suspense right to the end of the book. How can a ghost relive his own death to regain his honor, and still keep the living woman?
This romance is superbly written. The plot is fresh and unique and the characters come alive. As a veteran romance reader I can guarantee satisfaction with this story.

Great Ghost Romance!, 23 Nov 2008
By Liza Melton "Liza" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beaudry's Ghost (Paperback)
Jared Beaudry was mutilated and shot in the back by Bloody Zechariah Harris during the Civil War. For over a hundred years his spirit has roamed the beaches of North Carolina, refusing to rest until he finds a way to restore both his limbs and his honor while exacting vengeance on the man who took them. Although managing to make himself seen by a few people over the years, he's unable to make contact until he stumbles into a re-enactment of the battle where he died and meets psychic sensitive, Taylor Brannon.
Taylor has the ability to see spirits, an ability that terrifies her. She's spent her life running away from it. With the loss of her twin brother, Navy Seal Troy Brannon, Taylor tries to embrace her gift in an effort to make contact with him, but to no avail. Cutting her hair and dressing in her brother's Confederate uniform, she joins the re-enactment, hoping this will bring Troy to her. Feeling Taylor is the answer to his prayers, Jared makes a last ditch attempt to set things right by jumping into the body of a Union re-enactor, setting off a deadly chain of events no one could have foreseen.
Ms. Ivy has extensive knowledge of the Civil War and her ability to present the historical details in a way that doesn't slow the plot was quite impressive. I like the way the romance between Jared and Taylor develops and found the paranormal aspect done extremely well. The author has a talent for putting the reader right there in the thick of things, as the plot races along. The secondary characters were interesting and believable. The book could do with some editing to correct extra/missing words, but these didn't detract too much from my enjoyment of the story, which was well written and the editing will probably be taken care of in the new version. I do think the ending cries out for a sequel and I'm happy to find there will be one. I'll be sure to get a copy.
