She's also the stepdaughter of one of New England's most notorious criminals. And much to her stepfather's chagrin, the legal owner of Willowbrook Manor. The estate, left to her by her late mother Lady Helene Harrigan-Boyle, becomes the final wedge between Mallory and the man she'd always considered unworthy of her mother and the Harrigan title and estate. The many underground tunnels and hidden passages beneath the stately manor house hide even more secrets than they do illegal activity. Then there's also the unusual noises, the strange occurrences within the house itself, that set everyone on edge. Harry Cramer is summoned by Mallory's stepfather for a possible job opportunity. A disgraced ex-Pinkerton detective, on the lam from his former employer for embezzlement, Harry reluctantly takes on his assigned task as Mallory's bodyguard. As straight-forward as his unwanted protection assignment should be, things get complicated when he learns the truth about Mallory. She's not what he thought--who he thought--she was. Now that he knows the truth, protecting her takes on a whole new meaning. Along with his increased protection has come an awareness, a desire that he does his best to deny. When his desire becomes their desire, will things heat up to the point of no return? And when she discovers he's hiding secrets even bigger than her own, will she be able to forgive him and accept the possibility of a happily-ever-after? The Mistress of Willowbrook Manor is a standalone Roaring Twenties romance with elements of light paranormal and just a touch of heat.
