The Enchantress (Book 1 of the Enchantress Saga)
“In all her wildest dreams Susan had never dared hope that her tempestuous wild rogue of a son would be taken by his cousin’s delicate beauty. She loved her niece almost as much as her own daughter and had tried to take the place of a mother to her in the years since Sarah Allonby had died.Susan was glad to get away from Delamain Castle and the cramped dower house where she had lived since the death of Sir Francis. Her eldest son had immediately left for London; but even his welcome absence did ...not quite compensate for the loneliness and unease she felt without Brent. And there had been the terrible suffering while he was ill, and her inability to travel to his side because Emma had developed a fever that the doctor feared might be the pox and, although it was not, she had taken a long time to recover.Brent went in the boat over to Keswick to welcome his Mother, leaving Mary to supervise the preparations for the feast that was to solemnize the betrothal that night. Sister Sarah – named after her mother – and her husband Ambrose Rigg were also due to arrive with their young son Henry and the baby Elia just six months old.It was the longest trip Brent had made since his recovery and he was glad of the presence of Stewart because he still felt nervous, in case he should falter on his left leg which was still lame.MoreLess
