Fleeing London and a disastrous love affair, Makenna Lindsay heads for a cottage on the windswept shore of the Isle of Wight, only to find that instead of the peace and isolation she is seeking ghostly danger and very real, unwanted temptation await. This romance has all the classic elements-a brooding, tormented hero, an orphaned heroine, a motherless child, and a mansion on the cliffs-as well as a sizzling sensuality that would have been shocking in the earlier Gothics but is very much in keeping with what many of today's readers expect. Rogers evokes a wonderfully mysterious mood, and although the protagonists are at times too slow to confide in each other, their mutual attraction is obvious from the start. Rogers (The Grotto; Love Spell) is a favorite of current Gothic readers, and her many fans are sure to be waiting for this one. She lives in San Antonio. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
