Overview

A lonely widow inherits a manor everyone fears. A brooding lord insists she leave, for the child's sake. Juliet Anselm arrives on wild moorland to claim Ravensmere Hall, an isolated inheritance from a distant aunt. She expects cold rooms and harder work, but not the second shock waiting in the papers: Juliet has also been named guardian to Alice, a nervous child whispered about as cursed after a string of accidents in the house. At the gates stands Lord Edmund Wycliffe, the grim neighbor whose family history is tangled with Ravensmere's tragedies. The will binds Juliet and Edmund as co-trustees for Alice's safety. Edmund's solution is simple, close the house, remove the child, erase the danger. Juliet's answer is steadier: no. When another ""accident"" nearly harms Alice, Juliet finds signs of deliberate tampering. Ravensmere is not haunted by spirits, it is threatened by human greed. As village gossip tightens and authorities question Juliet's fitness to remain, she and Edmund must investigate together, protecting a child who needs both of them, and confronting a growing desire neither can afford to indulge. Ravensmere may be rebuilt into a sanctuary, but only if Juliet and Edmund choose partnership over fear, and love over the comfort of solitude. A standalone Regency romance in the Legacies of Fortune and Love series.
