The Lonely House — Jane Blackmore

SINISTER LOVER

For pretty young Carol Dalton and her still beautiful widowed mother, Emma, the lonely house by the sea was a fortress against the world and its tragic memories. But now their fortress was invaded by a handsome stranger, a man as mysterious as he was charming.

Helplessly Carol watched her mother lose her heart to him. Carol knew he meant evil. She knew she must stop him. But how could she, when she herself was falling desperately, dangerously, in love with him?
