The Stanforth Secrets
SWEET SKULDUGGERY
Chloe, Lady Stanforth, has run Delamere Hall since her husband's untimely demise last year. She loves the seaside manor, but mysterious doings have made her eager to depart. Enter Justin Delamere, her late husband's handsome cousin and the new Lord Stanforth. Just back from the Peninsular Wars, he swiftly sets his cap for the lovely young widow. Marry another dashing and devilish Delamere? The very notion makes Chloe even more eager to escape to a new life. But Justin has been assigned to trace valuable papers thought hidden at Delamere Hall ... and Chloe is suspected of treason. Now she resolves to prove her innocence to Justin and bid him farewell ... if only she can stop the traitorous longing of her enraptured heart.
