Spencer, Lord Wolverston, and newly named Earl of Kinraven, intended to find peace in the wilds of Scotland, far from the torment of wanting the one woman he believed he could never have. But his inheritance has come with a price he had not foreseen...a curse that is slowly driving him mad. He sends a desperate plea for help to his friend, the Duke of Briarleigh, but that plea is intercepted by the last person he wishes to see... the Duke's sister-in-law, Miss Larissa Walters, the women he left England to escape.

Larissa has struggled to put her past behind her and to overcome the abuses she suffered at the hands of Lord Moreland to whom her stepfather had owed a gambling debt. Spencer had saved her then, and now, she knows it is time to return the favor. She sets out on her own to show him, and perhaps herself, that she has the courage to face her fears...and to love him as he deserves. But all is not as it would seem at Kinraven. There is darkness there-plotting, lurking, waiting in the shadows to destroy whatever happiness they may find.

Can love truly conquer all, or will the darkness consume them both?

This is the third book in.a series of six. Each book in the Dark Regency Series features gothic elements, occult, or paranormal references and steamy, open door sex scenes.
