Secrets of Clearwater Castle — Emma Davies

A heart-warming, gorgeous story of family secrets, lost loves, and one woman's fresh start in the most unexpected of places. Heartbroken Lowri Morgan, a young Welsh widow, is finally packing up her beloved husband's belongings, her young daughter Wren asleep at her side. Then, hidden amongst the very last pile of papers, Lowri finds an official-looking letter - and her whole world shifts... Her husband had a secret inheritance, one he'd never mentioned or done anything about. And now, it seemed, somewhere called Clearwater Castle was hers - and, in time, little Wren's. How could he have hidden this from her and why? And what on earth was she going to do? Arriving in Clearwater village, Lowri doesn't find the fairy-tale home she'd pictured. The castle is near-derelict, a tiny cottage in the grounds barely liveable, and her responsibilities - as outlined by the ruggedly handsome but prickly local stonemason Huw - are overwhelming. This is not the future she'd imagined for her and Wren, but as the only link left to her husband, she's determined to make the best of it. Lowri never asked for a new start, but it seems fate has decided she needed one. As she and Huw reluctantly begin to work together, sparks start to fly between them. Can they find a way to save Clearwater Castle and bring life back to the village? What will they find out about themselves - and the mystery of the hidden inheritance - in the process? And will Lowri, heartbroken once already, find the courage to give love one more chance? Fans of Susanne O'Leary, Liz Eeles and Tilly Tennant will adore this totally uplifting and page-turning romantic mystery. Readers love Emma Davies: 'Oooooohhhhhh...
