Beauty of the Beast by Carolyn Faulkner
Mercy Little didn’t have much choice about going to Wildwoods Manor. It was either that or be put out on the streets. And the arduous trip to get there was hardly making her feel better about it, especially since, at the last, she was being pursued through the woods by wild animals. One, in particular.
Lord Statler wasn’t himself, and he hadn’t been for years, but the woman who was coming to stay with him represented a possible opportunity to rectify a wrong that had been done against him some time ago – and if he was lucky enough, skillful enough, he just might be able to turn things around.
As long as he could keep the beast within under wraps…
