Originally written under the pseudonym Deborah Martin, this unforgettable tale of mystery, treasure, and passion is back in print at last and newly revised for today's audience! Welsh widow Catrin Price is haunted by a family death curse. Any man whom she marries without first drinking from an ancient Druid chalice sold by her ancestor long ago is unquestionably doomed. But when she hunts it down to purchase it, the chalice's former owner ends up dead. Who will believe her innocent with the man's treasure in her hands? Now she lives in fear of discovery, afraid to trust, afraid to give away her heart... Even Newcome, a scholar struggling to overcome a difficult past, travels to Wales to find the mysterious woman last seen with his murdered friend. So when the lady proves to be a beautiful yet shy creature who shares his love of Welsh mythology, he's torn between believing her guilty and trusting the passion blazing between them. But as unscrupulous men seek the chalice for their own devious purposes, will Catrin and Evan let their wall of mistrust stand between them? Or will they defeat their enemies together and embrace the love intended for them since time immemorial?
I have read Sabrina Jeffries forever, so when I fould out she wrote as Deborah Martin I ordered some of the books. They all have a great story, great characters and an epilog.(Love that epilog). But reading her books is like walking in sand and I usually jump from dialog to dialog sometimes I get lost in the never ending paragraph's about what the character thinks or feels, but most of the time I can read the entire book just reaing dialog. The books are slow but worth the read
