- Summary
- Although Isolde Ophelia Goodnight's father made a fortune as the author of the bestselling series of novels that immortalized her as "Little Izzy Goodnight," he died without a penny to his name, leaving Izzy destitute and homeless. An inheritance from her godfather in the form of Gostley Castle proves a welcome surprise, even if a more appropriate name for the crumbling ruin is "ghostly" or "ghastly." Its current occupant, Lord Ransome Vane, the blind, brooding Duke of Rothbury, is considerably less charming...and unwilling to surrender his claim to the castle. However, as Izzy lays siege to his solitary existence, he may end up surrendering his heart. -- Description by Gillian Speace
