The End of Summer

Author(s): Rosamunde Pilcher

Fiction

Sitting on a California beach at summer's end, Jane Marsh thinks back to her childhood at the estate called Elvie in a remote corner of Scotland. She remembers not only the heather-covered hills and the lonesome loch, but her grandmother ...and, of course, Sinclair. She has secretly dreamed of marrying rakishly handsome Sinclair and settling at Elvie forever. Then an urgent visit from her grandmother's lawyer becomes the catalyst for her return to Scotland ...Where waiting for her is passion, not gentle love, and the chilling realisation that she may be ready to wed the wrong man.
