About this ebook

'My absolute favourite of all her books' JULIA QUINN, bestselling author of the Bridgerton series

A brand-new witty historical romance with a gothic twist from New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James

Lady B may have married Bluebeard; she may have fallen in love with a gorgeous, grumpy solicitor; she may have met a ghost and survived to tell the tale!

In the depths of winter, Lady Genevieve Hughes, her pet piglet, and her septuagenarian husband travel to a haunted abbey in the Scottish Highlands. Evie is excited to meet a ghost (perhaps one of her husband's three previous wives), but didn't expect the funny, quirky guests to become the friends she's never had. And she certainly didn't imagine meeting Sir Godric Everly, a sardonic, witty solicitor who loathes her husband.

Yet as secrets and lies turn Evie's world upside down, Sir Godric becomes the one person whom she can trust. When ghosts, multiple wills, and a shocking marriage certificate bring Lord Burnsby's past crashing into his present, Burnsby promptly dies, leaving Evie free to remarry . . . though as a virgin wife, now a virgin widow, she is more unnerved by the marriage bed than a spectral visit.

More importantly, she has to figure out whose identity is false; whose vows are dishonorable; whose truths could destroy her reputation - and where her heart belongs.

This thrilling stand-alone novel brings all the wit and sensuality you expect from an Eloisa James novel, together with a fast-paced plot set in the Scottish Highlands!
