GOTHIC
Dr. Alexander Dominican cannot explain why the lovely kindergarten teacher, Mary Adams, captivates him. When he proposes marriage, he believes he is pragmatically providing a qualified mother for his motherless child. Mary believes she is entering into this marriage of convenience with the darkly handsome widower because he will pay her sizeable debts. Neither one understands they are drawn together by a hidden desire, a deep longing they cannot escape.

This review is from: Bride of Sea Crest Hall (CD-ROM)

Mary Louise had been the best friend of Shelley. They shared one other friend, the boy named Jordan Waverly. The Waverly family were the wealthiest family on St. Catherine. They owned Sea Crest Hall, the most beautiful mansion on the island. Shelley loved him all the years they grew up together, but kept silent because Mary Louise often stated she planned to marry Jordan someday. And so they did.

Shelley was off in a distant school when her father's frantic letter arrived for her to return home. Once there she learned the Mary Louise had died and her father had made arrangements for Shelley to marry Jordan. The public said she had drowned in an accident. The family and servants said differently. Too late, Shelley found out that the Waverly family had a secret. The first born grandson, be it from Jordan or his brother, Benjamin, would inherit everything! Mary Louise had been pregnant when she died. Shelley even learned that her friend's life had been threatened from someone. More than just Shelley thought Mary Louise's death was not an accident at all, but murder. And now, whoever killed Mary Louise was after Shelley too!

***** A gothic lover's dream! Gothic stories are so hard to find now a days. Author, Clara Wimberly has given us a new source! Dark, gloomy, full of danger, and everyone a possible murderer. Excellent! I loved it! *****
