A classic Sands.
Gorgeous, competent (if a bit naive) young woman meets deceased husband’s brother, falls in majorly lust, then wildly in love. He reciprocates of course.
A plot to murder them is afoot! Attempted poisoning, head injuries, mid-coitus arrow wounds, bed rooms aflame, more arrow wounds, fratricide, matricide, jealousy, revenge, lots of less violent sex, returned characters (she’s the daughter of the couple from An English Bride in Scotland), and a huge strong hot man knocked on his ass by his fierce wife.
Hope her brother is next!
Thanks to Sands, Avon, and NetGalley for this ARC.
