“Nestled in the shadow of the Appalachians is where Gwen Ashby stumbles upon the William Marshall Academy, and she’s given a trial position as a literature teacher. The gothic boarding school seems trapped in time yet it feels like home the moment Gwen arrives.
She’s charmed by the lovely buildings, bewitched by the eager students…and utterly seduced by the headmaster. Edwin Yorke is noble, handsome and infuriatingly proper. But his tweedy exterior and courtly manners conceal a raw sensual power that Gwen longs to unleash.
It’s strangely thrilling to be the only woman on campus—save one other. An eerie white-clad figure roams the grounds by night. She never speaks. She leaves no trace. But this ghostly blight on Gwen’s new dream life is the key to the Marshall Academy’s mysterious allure.”
This was a well done contemporary romance with a unique twist to it. I enjoyed the characters, the school, and the chemistry between Gwen and Edwin. This is a fairly short read but it was engaging and entertaining. I liked the mystery and twist at the end.
I listened to this on audiobook and the audiobook was very well done.
Overall I enjoyed this and would recommend if you like romances with a gothic feel to them and a fun twist.
