Shadow on the Wind — Anne Lowing
SHE WOULD BE FORCED TO MARRY...BUT HE COULDN'T BE FORCED TO LOVE
IMOGEN'S LOVE SEEMED DOOMED FROM THE START
Imogen was an orphan, raised in poverty by her kind Aunt Rosalie. Yet she had always suspected that she was different, that fate held something special for her....
Suddenly, one day, it happened. The elegant Mr. Barrett arrived at their tiny cottage to take Imogen and her aunt to the magnificent estate of Gerard Godrevy, iron-willed even as he was dying. And Imogen's life became transformed. She was now rich, educated, given everything she could want...but she had three sworn enemies - Gerard's grandchildren, who taunted and threatened her constantly. Hopelessly, she loved one - Michael.
Then Gerard Godrevy exacted his most powerful demand; he would force the handsome young Michael to marry Imogen. For Michael, it apparently meant the pain of giving up his cousin Chantal whom he had always adored. For his brother Ranny and for Chantal, it spelled likely disaster. And for Imogen the misery of a loveless marriage to the only man she had ever loved, a man who could not even bring himself to touch her.
