It's 1875, and Alva Webster is ready for a fresh start. After three
years of being pilloried in the presses for fleeing her abusive husband,
his sudden death allows her to return to New York where she is
determined to restore a dilapidated Hyde Park mansion, and hopefully her
reputation at the same time. She is decidedly not supposed to fall in
love.
But when a haunting at her new home threatens her careful plans, she
must seek help from the eccentric and brilliant and - much to her
dismay - very handsome Professor Samuel Moore. Alva doesn't need more
complications in her life, especially not a convention-flouting,
scandal-raising one like Sam. Unfortunately, Sam is the only one who can
help. Together, the two delve into the tragic secrets wreathing Alva's
new home while Sam attempts to unlock Alva's history--and her heart.
Set during the Gilded Age in New York City, The Widow of Rose House is
a gorgeously romantic debut by Diana Biller, with an intrepid and
resilient American heroine guaranteed to delight readers as she starts
over and finds true love.
"A chemistry-fueled debut with a bit of a ghost story, great for
readers of gothic romance." - Booklist
"Biller mirrors Wharton's genius for revealing the emotional gold
lying beneath the Gilded Age, which motivates the novel's massive
romantic turmoil." - Bookpage (Most Anticipated Romances)
