Sebastian Alder's sudden elevation from penniless army captain to Viscount Somerton is the stuff of fairy tales, but the cold reality of an inherited estate in wretched condition leaves him little time for fantasy, and the memory of his wife's brutal death haunts his every moment. When he learns of the mysterious circumstances of his cousin's demise, he must also look for a potential murderer ... surely not Isabel, his cousin's ladylike widow?
Isabel, Lady Somerton, is desperate to bury the memory of her unhappy marriage by founding the charity school she has always dreamed of. Her hopes are shattered from beyond the grave when she is left not only penniless but once more bound to the whims of a Somerton ... although perhaps the new Lord Somerton is a man she can trust ... or even care for?
Suspicion could tear them apart ... honesty and courage may pull them together.

Australian author Alison Stuart began her writing journey halfway
up a tree in the school playground with a notebook and a dream. Her
father's passion for history and her husband's love of adventure
and the Australian bush led to a desire to tell stories of
Australia's past.
She has travelled extensively and lived in Africa and Singapore.
Before turning to writing full time, she enjoyed a long and varied
career as a lawyer, both in private practice and in a range of
different organisations, including the military and the emergency
services.
Alison lives in a historic town in Victoria. Amanda McKay is an
actor and TV and radio presenter based in Melbourne. After training

corporate videos. Her credits include INXS: Never Tears Us Apart
and The Secret River for TV, and As You Like It, The Taming on the
Shrew and Yes, Yes, Yes! for stage. Amanda has also narrated The
Silk House by Kayte Nunn and Fallen: The Inside Story of Cardinal
George Pell.
