The Heir of Garlands

the long version

A FACE FROM THE PAST Garlands is the beloved home of Ormonde Garland and her family, her father having inherited it on the death of his brother and brother's son, Lance. But eight years after Lance was thought too have perished at sea, he returns to claim the title and estate. Is he, with his knowledge of family affairs and his family likeness, the true Sir Lance - or is he an imposter? Years before, when Ormonde was no more than a child, a marriage was planned between herself and her cousin. The stranger who professes to be Sir Lance is only too willing to woo and win her - but Ormonde's heart is no longer hers to give.
