Perfect for you if...

You love multigenerational family mysteries with enough emotional weight to keep you thinking long after you finish.
You're drawn to settings like grand estates and English villages where history bleeds into present-day drama.
You want a romance subplot that unfolds naturally alongside the main plot, not one that overshadows it.

Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for a straightforward love story. The romance here is secondary to Olivia's self-discovery and family secrets.
You prefer fast-paced plots. This one takes time to build atmosphere and explore emotional nuance.
You don't want any ambiguity about character motivations or family relationships. Some revelations here are deliberately slow-burn.

About this book

When Olivia Shaw's mother dies, the food editor learns she has inherited a centuries-old English estate and a title. Grieving and shocked that her reserved mother kept this secret, Olivia leaves San Francisco to investigate the mystery. At Rosemere Priory, Olivia recognizes the manor from her mother's paintings. The estate is magnificent despite its disrepair, but Olivia cannot understand why her mother never told her about it. As she explores her mother's past, she finds that beneath the peeling wallpaper, debris, and vine-covered Elizabethan windows lie hidden secrets. While personal obligations and her life in San Francisco pull at her, Olivia becomes drawn to the English village and its people. Before determining what Rosemere and her own future will hold, she must first uncover the secrets of her past.
