Smuggler's Lair (2016)
“The girl he had asked to marry him had disappeared more than a month ago. It seemed she had vanished while visiting his castle of Bodiam.
The entire town of Hawkhurst had searched for her in Ashdown Forest and along the banks of the River Rother, fearing she’d had an accident. She had been gone so long without a trace that rumor had it Victoria Carswell had run away. Her mother, however, had different ideas and had charged Sir Peregrine with her disappearance.
None felt the loss more acutely th...an Fuller. Though he’d had no hand in it, he felt guilty by association since she’d gone missing while visiting Bodiam. He harbored a fear that she had run off rather than accept his proposal of marriage. Each morning he stood atop the tower to look down at the river where he had first seen the water sprite bathing naked.
Splendor of God, I think that’s Victoria!
Fuller ran down the spiral staircase at full speed, flung open the door that led out to the stone balcony, and without even kicking off his boots, he dove into the moat.MoreLess
