MARIEL

In the shadows of a remote English estate, a Victorian-era young noblewoman is drawn into a passionate affair as she becomes the target of someone waiting to exact long-awaited revenge in the final volume of Jo Ann Ferguson?s enthralling Foxbridge Legacy series Her heart breaking, twenty-six-year-old Lady Mariel Wythe stands before the ruins of her beloved ancestral mansion. Perched near the sea cliffs of northwestern England, Foxbridge Cloister has always been her home?a place of carefree times, but also of memories of sudden terror in the night. And now the dark curse that hovers over the legendary estate and all its inhabitants is about to come full circle.   The fire that destroyed most of the Wythe estate was no accident. And the danger is far from over. The town?s new pastor, Reverend Ian Beckwith-Carter, is determined to uncover the secrets that keep proud, fiercely independent Mariel from ever planning to marry. He may be too late. The seeds of a final retribution were set in motion decades before. As Ian fights to protect Mariel from the violent madness of her past, someone else is plotting to make her the last lady of Foxbridge Cloister. Mariel is the 3rd book in the Foxbridge Legacy, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
