Just In Time

Beloved storyteller Judith A. Lansdowne introduces the first in a spellbinding new trilogy set against the backdrop of Blackcastle estate -- home to ancient mysteries and passionate new romances alike... — A LONG-LOST FRIENDSHIP... — The Reverend Richard Dempsey accepts the comfortable living in the hinterlands offered him by the Duke of Berinwick. But when Dempsey arrives at St. Milburga's of the Wood, he discovers the church in ruins, his patron dead, and Berinwick's family threatened by a madman.

Years ago, Richard Dempsey would have risked everything for Veronica Longwood. Now that she is the widowed Duchess of Berinwick, will he still risk all to protect her and her children from the consequences of an ancient rivalry?

BECOMES A NEW FOUND LOVE

Behind a calm and commanding facade, Veronica Longwood Thorne hides a heart filled with grief and guilt. Haunted by memories of her one great sin and appalled by the multitude of sins that flowed from it, the Duchess of Berinwick wishes nothing more than to hide herself away from everyone. Until Richard Dempsey reappears in her life. Until this long-lost friend provides her with a solid arm to lean upon, a pair of practical eyes through which to see herself, and all the balm and strength she requires to overcome her own inadequacies, foil a villain, and seize a second chance at love..
