Description

Lady Violet Belmaine is just finding her balance as a widow who has recently put off mourning when she's summoned to the family seat to celebrate a sibling's wedding. Hugh St. Sevier's escort makes the journey somewhat bearable, while Sebastian MacHeath's presence among the guests is a more dubious blessing.

Violet is managing as best she can with her stubborn Papa, difficult brothers, and well meaning aunties, when the bride goes missing. Tempers flare, old secrets come out at the worst times, and Violet can rely on only St. Sevier and Sebastian to help her find the bride… until she discovers that St. Sevier was the last person seen with the missing lady!
