Dark Island — Grace Corren

Selina's first taste of love comes at the place planned for her dying!

A TIME TO DIE

Selina Anders had never known the love, the comfort, of a family; her childhood dreams of loving parents turned to bitter nightmares long before she was grown. By the time she was twenty, it seemed natural to be alone in the world, depending on no one, needing no one...wanting no one.

Then James Telman, an attractive middle-aged man who claimed to be her uncle, came into her life. Before the shock of suddenly discovering a world long banished from her dreams had worn away, Selina went with him to the old house on Dark Island...the house that her mother had known and loved...the house where Death was waiting! There Selina discovered that family love was not the most precious thing in the world...and her only escape would be through dying!
