The New Mrs. Aldrich (Historical Romance #31) e-bok

INTRIGUE. TENSION. LOVE AFFAIRS: In The Historical Romance series, a set of stand-alone novels, Vivian Stuart builds her compelling narratives around the dramatic lives of sea captains, nurses, surgeons, and members of the aristocracy. Stuart takes us back to the societies of the 20th century, drawing on her own experience of places across Australia, India, East Asia, and the Middle East. She loved a man to the manor born... And the young, spirited American bride-to-be was determined to take her place beside her distinguished Maurice with dignity. Bur Tracey soon found she had married more than the squire of a vast old English estate. She had married a man with a very disturbing – and very recent – past. As she unveils the truths surrounding his aristocratic, secluded family, Tracey finds herself in increasingly sinister circumstances. Maurice had married before, his brother had died mysteriously … and several people are warning Tracey now to leave before she learns too much. One of them is an attractive artist who is capturing their ancestral home on canvas for posterity. But Maurice suddenly forbids her to see Don… Vivian Stuart was a British writer and during her writing career she had more than 70 books published in Australia, USA and the UK. Born in Berkshire in England, she spent most of her youth in Burma and India, and later lived in Hungary and Australia. At the age of thirty-five she began to write romantic fiction but soon devoted her attention to military and historical novels.
