Rites of Passion
About this ebook
EMMALINE: War widow Emmaline Gage has inherited a bleak old house and garden that matches her spirits, but a chance meeting across a Beltane fire stokes a passion inside her that can no longer be denied.
JACK: The horrors of war have all but destroyed Jack Wainscott until he falls ill and meets the one woman who can heal him, body and soul.
As their feelings for one another take root and flourish, so does the mystical garden that calls to them both. Will they take the second chance at love they've been offered, or will their fears--and the garden's haunts--send them scurrying away forever?
