Description
Groom, best man, guests, even a bishop, but where is the bride? An orphan fresh out of convent school, Prue Pagan has no home and nowhere to go. Then a chance meeting with her worldly-wise friend Cleo lands her a summer job in the north of England at Mountjoy Castle, where generations of the Mountjoy family have loved, lusted, and scandalised their neighbours. Prue's innocence is no protection against the wickedness of the English upper classes. As a long sultry summer settles on the castle show more and its surrounding villages, Prue must find her feet and make friends in an unfamiliar world of musicians, aristocrats and witchy housekeepers, and fend off the advances of attractive, predatory Valdemar Mountjoy. Will Prue take fright, listen to her heart or succumb to the temptations lurking on every side? show lessTags
