Entrancing the Earl

Can an impoverished earl find treasure with the aid of a runaway bride and a ghost? Refusing to fill her drunken stepfathers coffers by marrying a wealthy American Lady Iona Malcolm Ross flees her Highland estate for Wystan castle a home for stray Malcolm females. Shes quite content to tend her precious queen bee and hives there-until the day the castles owner returns.Unless Gerard Earl of Ives and Wystan can squeeze more income out of his estate hell have to close the familys deteriorating castle and evict the tenants. The sharp-tongued beekeeper who nearly kills him with her bees is simply another good reason. But lately an artifact in his pocket weirdly whispers of treasure at Wystan in the knowledgeable voice of a Roman soldier.A busy man with interests in law and archeology Gerard isnt much inclined to believe that hes one of his familys psychic eccentrics. Until news of a ten-thousand pound reward for the return of Lady Iona a runaway bride introduces a whole new perspective to the word treasure. Even if he werent allergic to Ionas bees he needs to marry money and she is penniless. But surely between them they can claim the reward and still turn her wicked stepfathers plot on its head-without endangering their lives or hearts.
