About This Book

COULD LOVE PREVAIL IN A HOUSE THAT BROUGHT EVIL TO THREE GENERATIONS?

WHAT DESTINY AWAITED LOVE IN A HOUSE CURSED BY FATE?

The Old Priory had stood abandoned, shrouded in whisperings of doom, for as long as the townspeople could remember. Now it belonged to Arthur Tresize, a returning seaman who purchased the house, the land--and his fate--with gold ill-gotten from a noblewoman veiled in mystery.

Tresize and his family grew richer with each passing year. But strange mishaps and tragic misfortunes befell them with the vengeance of a curse unheeded. Death, betrayal, madness, heartbreak, and murderous hatreds worked their evil through three generations. Until the family's pride and prosperity and all they had built were as broken dreams in the dust.

Yet in a young man's passion for a beautiful woman was the promise that the sorrow haunting the Old Priory might now give way to the joy of love.
