Mount Mellyn stood as proud and magnificent as she had envisioned . . . But what about its master—Connan TreMellyn? Was Martha Leigh's new employer as romantic as his name sounded? As she approached the sprawling mansion towering above the cliffs of Cornwall, an odd chill of apprehension overcame her.
TreMellyn's young daugher, Alvean, proved as spoiled and difficult as the three governesses before Martha had discovered. But it was the girl's father whose cool, arrogant demeanor unleashed unfamiliar sensations and turmoil—even as whispers of past tragedy and present danger begin to insinuate themselves into Martha's life.
Powerless against her growing desire for the enigmatic Connan, she is drawn deeper into family secrets—as passion overpowers reason, sending her head and heart spinning. But though evil lurks in the shadows, so does love—and the freedom to find a golden promise forever . . .

The book is written from the perspective of her heroine, Miss Leigh, Marty, Martha or as the Master of Mellyn calls her: “My Dear Miss Leigh. Through her eyes we see the world, as most of us would, as we leave the comfort of our homes. Journey to an unknown destination and job in an exotic locale. Scared, hopeful, longing, anxious, excited, eager, and determined. But most of all desperately seeking “love”.
Ms. Holt became a master of romantic intrigue. All her novels were thoroughly researched as to locale and historic influences. To this day, I can envision Cornwall, it’s people, history, cities, architecture. I can taste the pasties she writes of and be very happy that I now have a smart phone to translate those Cornish words.
To those of you who enjoy the steamy novels that have become so popular, take a break and reawaken those feelings that do not need explicit scenes to make you remember what it’s like to be a young girl again. In that you’ll look at the world a new and long for the next Audiobook of Ms. Holt’s.
Pure and Enduring Romantic Love encased in a tale of loss, intrigue, suspicion, fear and possible murder.
