The Ruby Ghost,
By AK "Bro" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ruby Ghost (Signet Regency Romance) (Paperback)
Taking the position as governess to the Silverthorne family should have solved Penelope Jone's problems; she needs income and her family needs to have one less burden. However, she just knows that the rakish cousin of her new employers is trouble with a capital T. Moreover, a painting in the home depicts an image she has seen only in her dreams, and the lady of the house is haunted by spirits who have appeared to Penelope in those same dreams. Does Penelope have a connection to the house? Is she the key to putting the ghosts to rest?
*** A longer novel to develop the events more would have served the plot better, but it is a credible effort. It almost meanders into being more a gothic than Regency, but does not go far enough to be truly that. *** Amanda Killgore
