Cressida Charmsworth inherited the title of Baroness deCourcy from her father. A country girl (of twenty-three), she also inherited alarming wealth and gave herself two London seasons. Wishing to have a relaxing vacation by the sea, she attempted to rent Lord Dauntry’s adorable Swiss-style cottage. But he refused, though his mother offered the dower house next door. Ghostly sounds, midnight excursions, an undesirable relative, all disturbed Cressida’s stay. Regency Romance by Joan Smith; originally published by Fawcett Crest
