    About this ebook

    "Feisty heroine, a man with secrets, mystery . . . and beautiful Cornwall!" ~ Joanna Gawn, author of The Lazuli Portals

    Can a ghost scare off a young heiress determined to make her new manor her home?

    Having inherited a family estate she’d never heard of, Minerva Goodridge travels to Cornwall to take charge of her new home. But fatal memories lurk in the shadows of Trekellis Manor. As the locals keep away from the house, Minnie accepts the help of a stranger. Can she trust him?

    Gideon Drake, 8th Earl of Rothdale, is on a mission to uncover a family secret linked to Trekellis Manor. But the arrival of Minerva, the new owner, disrupts his investigation. Attracted to the headstrong heiress, he decides to take action – and ends up uncovering more than he expected.

    Gideon must weigh up his family’s reputation against Minnie’s, but will the revelations tear them apart?

    A gothic suspense romance novella set in Cornwall.
