Description

When the war-scarred Viscount Penrydd washes up in 1799 Newport minus his memory, Gwenllian ap Ewyas decides not to tell him he owns, and threatened to sell, the property she's made a refuge for her and other lost souls.

Gwen found healing from her haunted past by making St. Sefin's into a sanctuary for the hurt and abandoned, and she'll do anything to preserve the place-including lie to the English lord who owns it until she can win him to her cause. But making Penrydd her stableboy is a dangerous game, especially when he's a target for an outside menace moving into Newport. Even more unsettling for Gwen, under the scars and arrogance is a man she can admire and possibly love. But as shadows from both their pasts appear at St. Sefin's, Gwen risks losing her livelihood, her home, and her heart when Penrydd learns just how far she's gone to deceive him.
