Dangerous Expectations: A Gothic Mystery in the Tradition of Holt and Whitney - Paperback

by B. J. Conner (Author)

For Reece Hensley, the extraordinary Barclay Manor was somewhere she would never be welcomed. However for her sister Olivia, it was a fantasy kingdom, where their beautiful Aunt Norah had married her prince, Garrett Barclay, and went there to live only to disappear. Reece accepted their father's explanation, that Norah had taken money from Garrett's account and ran away with a lover. Olivia was not so easily persuaded. The narcissistic Norah had wanted nothing more than to become a Barclay and Olivia would not believe she would ever deviate from that dream. Norah had not contacted her family for four years after she married Garrett even though they lived only few miles from Barclay. It was no surprise to the Hensley's because Norah's expectations did not included her brother or her nieces. When Reece and Olivia happen to meet Garrett's dashing brother, Nicolas, in the valley between their homes, the sisters become involved with the Barclay family, only to be drawn into love, intrigue, deceit and danger.
