Clarissa really falls in love with the house - a beautiful Tudor manor in the Welsh marches: marrying Thomas is simply the best way to get it. But life there isn t quite the idyll she expects. Thomas is so busy with the farm that he doesn t see the need for a social life, and his two elderly, eccentric aunts- though charm itself - aren t the most stimulating companions. When Evan appears on the scene, Clarissa is ripe for a little diversion, but the complications that ensue demand Welsh magic to unravel them.
