The Silent Touch of Shadows (Shadows from the Past #1)
Christina Courtenay
A love that echoes through the ages . . .
After genealogist Melissa Grantham’s marriage falls apart, she escapes to her family’s ancestral home in Kent.
But from the moment she arrives at Ashleigh Manor, vivid dreams of a young couple in love from the fourteenth century haunt her.
Before she can dismiss them as nothing more than her imagination, Melissa meets a handsome stranger who lives in a nearby cottage. The same man from her dreams.
Melissa feels a burning attraction to Jake, but can she really trust her feelings, or are they merely caused by a love so strong it has echoed through generations . . .
And how are they tied to the 600-year-old tragedy locked away within the looming shadow of Ashleigh Manor?
Winner of the 2012 Best Historical Read award from the Festival of Romance.
Fans of Barbara Erskine, Susanna Kearsley, Irina Shapiro or Kirsty Ferry will be utterly spellbound by this absorbing and addictive timeslip romance with rich and vivid historical detail, set between the present and the Wars of the Roses.
