It has been five long years since Gareth Kemp last saw Elaine—when she rejected his marriage proposal. Her reappearance convinces him of one thing: he has never stopped loving her. To put his feelings for her aside, he focuses his attention on the dangerous smuggling plaguing the Cornish coast. As Elaine attempts to run from her past, she ventures ever closer to a dangerous truth—and Gareth may be the only one who can save her from a deadly finish.
Advance Praise
This peculiar Regency from Daines (Willowkeep) is much more a suspense novel than a romance, kissed with the aesthetic of modern fantasy. It s primarily an expression of love for the Cornwall coast and for Arthurian legend, grounded in the smuggling history of the region. --Publisher's Weekly
Elaine's adventures are a clear throwback to the novels of the regency era, with a mix of tales from the age of chivalry. The result is a cross-genre story that could serve as a haven for anyone. --Foreword Reviews
