The Widows of Wayward Manor - E-book - ePub

After eighteen months as a widow, Allegra Watkins knows it's time to move on with her life. She's just not sure how to accomplish it. A sign from the Universe would be really helpful-especially before her mom starts signing her up for dating sites. Out of the blue, Allegra learns she's the new owner of an estate in Bath, England. But there's more to this inheritance than a Jane Austen summer vacation. Allegra is the latest in an unbroken line of widows, going back two hundred years, and her new home is known as Wayward Manor. That's because of the first widow, Madeleine, Lady Canton - who was never the meek and mousey wallflower type. How could Allegra hope to continue that legacy? She barely remembers how to flirt anymore. Fortunately Madeleine has left a diary which details her new romance with a dashing Navy captain, as well as the story of her widowed sister Anne finding love again. The diary becomes a guidebook for Allegra's new life.
It inspires her to embark on a romance with her sexy neighbor, Max, who needed adventure as much as Allegra did. She's also regained her confidence about the future and the direction it's headed. If all goes well, Allegra will have a ton of exciting diary entries to inspire future widows-and make the previous Widows of Wayward Manor beam with pride.
