Love Hides In The Most Surprising Places
As guardian to her two young siblings after her parents' death, Daphne Beaumont struggles to keep the family together. But when Daphne's brother suddenly inherits a sizable estate from a distant relative, they are able to leave London behind for a prosperous new life in Cornwall. Devoted to her charges, Daphne doesn't believe marriage is in her future, despite her newfound wealth and striking beauty--until she meets the intriguing Charles Weston. . .
A long-buried secret brings Charles to Cornwall, where he encounters the alluring Daphne while walking on the beach. When a sudden rockslide strands the two in a cave, their shared captivity is sure to invite scandal. Charles knows he must act honorably and propose to Daphne--an easy prospect for him considering he has fallen for her. The real challenge now lies in Charles winning Daphne's heart--and showing her how wonderful love's spell can be. . .

From Booklist:
Daphne, devoted to caring for her siblings, is excited when her brother inherits a title and a Cornwall estate, and tells no one about its supernatural element: an ethereal nighttime visitor. Meanwhile, wealthy, dashing Charles Weston from Scandal Becomes Her (2007) is searching for clues about his supposedly dead step-brother Raoul. Either he is alive or someone else is killing and mutilating young women. While exploring, Daphne becomes trapped in a cave and Charles comes to her rescue, leading the two strangers straight into marriage to avoid scandal. Charles hopes that someday Daphne will protect him as she does her siblings. Busbee’s entertaining mix of gothic romance and suspense is a pleasure to read. --Patty Engelmann
