Author Description

A nemesis from the past, a pompous mother-in-law, and a vixen. What could possibly go wrong? One year after her life-changing time-travel journey back to 1878 England, Kat Shelton is swept off her feet by the handsome and wealthy Trenton Gilford III, the owner of her beloved Charlock Manor and the third great-grandson of Merritt Gilford--the 19th-century gentleman who helped Kat cope through her fiancé's death. While family and friends descend on the Gilford estate for a traditional ten-day house party leading up to Trenton and Kat's wedding day, a confounding woman mysteriously appears in an antiquated gown and with an all too familiar insolence. Ms. Margaret Abbott! As if Kat's archenemy from 1878 isn't enough, her pretentious soon-to-be mother-in-law aligns with a scheming unwelcomed guest, to pursue every opportunity in driving a wedge between the idyllic couple. Interspersed between archery arrows, horse races, and a lively game of cricket--doubt, deception, and lies emerge. Will Kat conquer her fears to attain the happy ending she desires? Or will secrets from the past crush her resolve and leave her defeated? Return to Charlock is the second book in the intriguing Charlock time-travel series that offers a highly entertaining twist on a clean historical and contemporary romance.
