Publisher Description

After losing her father and nearly losing her life when their ship sank off the coast of Cornwall, Adelaide Hampton Parke is faced with a terrible dilemma. Her stepmother has demanded that they immediately set sail for New York but the very idea of stepping foot on board another ship and facing the uncertainty of a Transatlantic crossing leaves her paralyzed with fear. Not to mention that her relationship with her stepmother is contentious at best and she's been given only six months to return to New York and find herself a husband or be put out of the family's Park Avenue home to make her own way in the world.



Salvation comes, unexpectedly, in the form of a telegram from Eldren Llewellyn a Welsh lord and the sole owner of a mining empire. He'd partnered with her father in multiple business ventures, and upon the man's death, proposed to Adelaide in order to spare her the ordeal of returning home in her stepmother's less than tender care. But as she travels to his remote estate in Snowdonia, Adelaide comes to realize that his ancestral home, Cysgod Lys, literally the Shadow Hall, is filled with secrets and dark things she cannot name. Fear is her constant companion and she begins to wonder if her new husband is her savior... or her doom.

House of Shadows

I thought the book was great, but I’m very disappointed that the author did not end the story! Will we be offered the next book in the series as a “freebie” or will we have to purchase it to continue the story?

Enjoyable!

I really enjoyed the story. Although the author apologized for it not being steamier or quicker to the point of the romance in her thank you, I appreciated having the character development first and having the characters get to know each other. My one complaint is that the editing is not great. There are words missing in some places and there are places where the antecedence don’t match the characters they’re talking about. But I bought the next one and I’m excited to read it!

Yuck!

It’s a cliffhanger. Too bad because it had a good story line.
