The Captured Bride of Aspenwood — Peggy Darty
"You're staying at Aspenwood? But there's a curse on that house!"
Raised in an orphanage where she learned to bake the most delicious cakes in Colorado, delicately lovely Elizabeth Blake was grateful for the chance to put her skills to use during the tourist season at a fine hotel in Cripple Creek. But when she learned that she would be staying at Aspenwood Abbey, a frightening place, built into the mountains and surrounded by dark forests of spruce and pine, her worries began. The wind howled around the eaves, and strange scratchings at her door warned her that odd doings were afoot. Never had Elizabeth felt so alone. Even the protective embrace of the sleek-haired, golden-eyed master of Aspenwood couldn't allay her fears, for nothing was as it seemed in the snowbound, windswept abbey...nothing except the certainty that she had been chosen as the next victim of the ancient Aspenwood curse, and must fight for her life...before she lost her heart.
