Overview

Professional genealogist Melissa Grantham receives an invitation to visit her family's ancestral home, Ashleigh Manor. From the moment she arrives, life-like dreams and visions haunt her. The spiritual connection to a medieval young woman and her forbidden lover have her questioning her sanity, but Melissa is determined to solve the mystery. Jake Precy, owner of a nearby cottage, has disturbing dreams too, but it's not until he meets Melissa that they begin to make sense. He hires her to research his family's history, unaware their lives are already entwined. Is the mutual attraction real or the result of ghostly interference? A haunting love story set partly in the present and partly in fifteenth century Kent

Editorial Reviews

Being Anne

"This is a satisfying love story in both periods, and I have to say I think I’ve found an author who has accomplished this difficult art of “time slip” writing to a standard that puts her in competition with several of my former favourites like Susanna Kearsley, Barbara Erskine and Rachel Hore... this is an author in firm control of her material, and with a fantastically readable style. "

Historical Novels Review

"...it is an entertaining novel, and if you enjoy the slight shiver down the spine as you read, then this story will be for you."

Coffee Time Romance & More

"This suspenseful, parallel, historical, time travel, paranormal is one huge page turner. It is not difficult to believe every scene and follow Melissa's frightening journey into the cruel past. This reader was thoroughly swept away by the good description, believable emotion, and language appropriate for the timeframe of each scene. Ms. Courtenay is a skilled storyteller."
