Tragedy had struck her life again and again. The last time had left lovely Wyeth MacLendon a widow and driven her to Quebec's glorious Chateau Montbel. Perhaps here she could rest, begin again as part-owner of the magnificent resort hotel. But Colin MacLendon, her late husband's brash nephew, had other ideas. From the moment they met he had shown his determination to sweep her off her feet, to proclaim himself lord of the manor and master of her destiny. Never before had Wyeth felt such rage - or such passion. He claimed her more completely than any man she had ever known. But bad luck seemed to stalk her every step...Could she offer him a love she knew was jinxed?
