Synopsis: Jane Eyre meets Beauty and the Beast.
When Lucy Pickett arrives at Blackwell Manor to tend to her ailing cousin, Kate, she finds more than she bargained for. A restless ghost roams the hallways, werewolves have been reported in the area, and vampires lurk across the Scottish border. Lord Miles himself is clearly hiding a secret. He is brash and inhospitable, and does not take kindly to visitors—even one as smart and attractive as Miss Pickett. He is unsettled by the mysterious deaths of his new wife, Clara, and his sister, Marie. Working together, Miles and Lucy attempt to restore peace to Blackwell Manor. But can Lucy solve the mystery of Miles? Can she love the man—beast and all?
I was expecting this book to be just another retelling of beauty and the beast with a similar story line, but this book caught me off guard. This book is filled with unexpected surprises and characters which made it an oddly fun read. I originally had found the 2nd book in this series, but knew I had to read this one first as the characters all intersect with each other in someway through the books.
