In The Foxfire Manor, Robert's family home, was no haven of peace. From the moment Kathryn arrived, she knew she was not welcomed.

This book will leave you guessing at the outcome until the last page. Who will win the heroine's heart and love? Pick up a copy today to find out how this gothic/romance ends. This tale embraces the twilight hour, when romance is in the air and passion rouses the senses. This tale is a compelling, suspenseful, and passoinate lovestory. I'm a big fan of traditional, old-fashioned, Gothic novels, (Love the book covers too!) and since I'm a modern-day writer, I strive to bring that elegance unto the written page. As a result, my books are dark, mysterious, romantic, and sometimes eerie, with the recurring gloomy mansion, a beautiful, inquisitive heroine, and a brooding, but handsome hero and/or anti-hero. My heroines will always be feisty, young, and beautiful, and my heroes, brooding, suave and extremely attractive. Once you begin reading one of my stories, before you know it, you will find yourself swept up in the suspenseful, romantic intrigue as you hurry to turn those pages! Her prose is quite unique and a bit different from the "norm of romances" you may be used to reading. I can promise you that her books (like my own) will be so appealing and believable that you will find yourself walking in the heroine's shoes, seeing through her eyes, speaking her words, feeling her fears, her struggles, her anguish, her melancholy and even her ecstasy. The endings are sometime surprising... sometimes happy... sometimes bittersweet... but they are NEVER boring, or predictable!

A great read! "Kathryn McClary dreamed of falling passionately in love with a man who would adore her forever, but North Carolina in the midst of the Civil War was not a good place for dreams. Orphaned, alone, her house burned to the ground, Kathryn knew that she must be sensible and accept the proposal of marriage from wealthy, wounded Robert Kincaid. She would settle for security in place of passion, friendship in place of love, and she would make Robert happy. But Foxfire Manor, Robert's family home, was no haven of peace. From the moment Kathryn arrived, she knew she was not welcome. And as hard as she tried to be a devoted wife to Robert, she could not deny the irresistible, electric charge of emotion sparked by his enigmatic brother, Matthew-the dark one, they called him There was no way she could stay-no way she could leave-no way she could escape the storm that was about to break.."
