A Very Gothic Romance;
Guard Your Dreams . . . Lest They Emerge from the Mists to Embrace You . . .
After her mother is murdered, Elizabeth’s Irish grandmother casts a spell summoning a Dark Hero from the Gothic Romances Elizabeth devours. When a beguiling Irishman appears at their cottage one magic summer eve, he seems to be everything Elizabeth longs for in a hero.
But Donovan is much more than she bargained for when she said ‘I do’. Once they arrive on his isolated estate, Elizabeth fears her new husband is courting madness. She struggles with his dark moods, his disguises and their growing estrangement.
Elizabeth has the gift of the seer and is able to speak with the dead. Tormented by dark memories of her mother’s murder and stalked by a malevolent ghost, Elizabeth is forced to embrace her Druid heritage and confront the disturbing secrets hidden in her soul.
The price of honesty may be too steep; if Donovan learns her horrifying secrets, Elizabeth may lose his love forever.
