The Challenge — E.V. Timms

Dark Inheritance

Exquisite, blue-eyed Susan had been alone and solitary all her life. Abandoned by her mother, she knew nothing of her father. Yet now her dying mother had summoned Susan to a weird, wild island. And Susan was afraid.

With her last breath, the bitter, once-beautiful woman gave Susan the truth about her father, leaving her a legacy of fierce hate and a fortune founded on shipwreck and plunder.

For the timid girl, it was the beginning of a strange and often dangerous quest across an untamed island--to regain her rightful name, to find the love her heart had never known.
