Description
Set in the Scottish Highlands at the beginning of the 19th century, this witty and sensual novel is filled with unexpected twists. During a bitter winter, Lady Genevieve Burnsby travels with her pet piglet and her seventy-year-old husband to a remote abbey said to be haunted. Evie eagerly anticipates meeting the ghosts, but she does not expect the entertaining, eccentric guests who become friends unlike any she has ever had. Nor does she expect to meet Sir Godric Everly, a cynical and quick-witted lawyer who despises her husband. When secrets and lies turn Evie’s life upside down, Sir Godric becomes the only person she can trust. Ghosts, several wills and a shocking marriage certificate bring Lord Burnsby’s past to light. Then Burnsby dies, and Evie can marry again, but the virgin wife, now a virgin widow, fears the marital bed more than a ghostly visitor. Above all, she must discover whose identity is false, whose promises are lies, whose truths could destroy her honour, and who holds her heart.
