Synopsis

Book 3 of 6 of the Mannerling Series When one of her sisters is attacked by Harry Devers, the son of Mannerling's present owner, Abigail Beverley puts her obsession with reclaiming the mansion on hold. Then Abigail meets Lord Burfield, fresh back from the army and in full-time pursuit of a bride. Yet unexpected circumstances force Harry Devers to recuperate from a riding accident in the Beverley home, where Abigail's twin sister Rachel nurses him back to heath - and into betrothal. Stirred from its brief slumber, Abigail's fury returns, alive and kicking. So when Rachel begins to have doubts about marrying Harry, Abigail devises a daring plan to win back Mannerling once and for all.
