Sinossi
From award-winning author Margaret Evans Porter, an emotion-rich tale of unlikely love.
Annis Kelland, daughter of a notorious Devonshire smuggler, has avoided wealthy landowner Sir Edwin Page ever since he kissed her during the apple harvest celebrations. Her mother warns her that the baronet is merely trifling with her. Her stepfather, the local squire, is keen to play matchmaker.
Edwin's determined courtship is thwarted--and threatened--by an unwelcome guest desperate to claim the dead smuggler's buried treasure. Will a night of passion undo the damage caused by a meddlesome friend, or destroy the mis-matched couple's chance at happiness?
"A writer to watch."--Affaire de Coeur
