Product Description
Product Description
Karen Robards, the New York Times bestselling author of The Senator's Wife and The Midnight Hour, has written her most compelling novel yet in Ghost Moon, a mesmerizing, powerful tale of forbidden love, family intrigue, and a proud woman's return to the dark secrets of her past.
Olivia Morrison, raised by her affluent stepfather John Archer on a lavish estate in Louisiana, enjoyed a life of privilege until she ran off with a cowboy and left the wealthy Archers behind. Years later, with her eight-year-old, Sara, in tow, Olivia returns to that long-ago estate--a prodigal daughter returning home, unsure of what she'll find there.
Olivia thinks she is prepared for a chilly reception, but she doesn't expect the emotions that churn when she comes face-to-face again with Seth, her older stepcousin, to whom she had once been so close. Seth, himself the father of a daughter and engaged to be married, is still disturbingly, dangerously, attractive. Olivia must contend, too, with the powerful emotions evoked by the past, and with a flood of dreams about her mother's death by drowning so many years before. When a new danger threatens her and her daughter, Olivia must face down her old demons, and find the courage to confront her new ones, in order to rebuild a new life with her little girl--and with the man she loves.

Karen Robards shows us more of her dark side with this novel of a woman returning to her home town with her daughter to conquer the demons she thought she'd left behind when she ran away ...
This is in the tradition, but not as good as, the excellent "Paradise County". A contemporary thriller romance with the heroine trying to find out more about the death of her mother while contending with the attraction she feels for her childhood mentor and former protector. Dark and sensual Robards once again shows how good modern romantic fiction can be. Quite a quick read you get the feeling good as this novel is, that there is better to come. I hope so.

This book completely took me by surprise with a terrifying story intwined in a romance. It is beautifully written and I would definately recommend it. Will keep your interest right up until the end.

I didn't like the rather scary chapters of child abduction that was interspered throughout an otherwise gentle romance book. It was well written and held the interest but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with young children!
