Romance Historical
Within weeks letters would be burned, pages torn. Promises
would be broken and hearts betrayed. But for now the
countryside languished, golden and fading… Cecily Chadwick is idling away the long, hot summer of 1911
when a mysterious countess moves into the large, deserted
country house on the edge of her sleepy English village.
Rumors abound about the countess’s many husbands and lovers,
her opulent wealth, and the tragedies that have marked her
life. As Cecily gets to know her, she becomes fascinated by
the remarkable woman—riveted by her tales of life on the
Continent, and of the famous people she once knew. But the
countess is clearly troubled by her memories, and by ruinous
secrets that haunt her… Staying with the countess is a successful novelist and dear
friend who has been summoned to write the countess’s
memoirs. For aspiring writer Cecily, the novelist’s presence
only adds to the intrigue of the house. But it is the
countess’s grandson, Jack, who draws Cecily further into the
tangled web of the countess's past, and sweeps her into an
uncertain future…
