A governess with a haunted past. A brooding widower with dangerous secrets. At Blackwood Manor, love is as perilous as the shadows that haunt its halls.


When her father’s scandal leaves her penniless,
Beatrice Hale accepts a position as governess at the isolated and mysterious Blackwood Manor on the Yorkshire moors. Her new charges, two troubled children, are as strange and secretive as their home. But it is their father—Edward Blackwood, a grieving widower and master of the house—whose cold command hides both desire and despair.


Forbidden from entering the locked west wing and warned never to ask about his late wife, Beatrice soon senses that the manor itself keeps dark secrets. Whispers echo through the corridors, ghostly figures move beyond the candlelight, and the truth about the late
Mrs. Blackwood may be more terrifying than any haunting.


As her slow-burn attraction to Edward deepens into a dangerous love, Beatrice must choose between safety and passion, reason and the supernatural, and decide whether love can survive where tragedy once lived.
