Ruby Rest

When her lover drowns under mysterious circumstances, beautiful Edda Taylor vows to start her life afresh in Ruby Rest, the rundown California cottage she has inherited and plans to restore. Soon she is pursued by two intriguing men: Trace, her garden designer, and Shay, her employer. As Edda investigates the history of Ruby Rest, she discovers the deadly secrets of its past: Its previous owner was drowned a month before Edda's lover...and both her gentlemen had ties to the victims. Are these accidents, or murders? Edda's recurring dream of a rose tossed by waves seems to suggest the latter, but just where does the truth lie? Can Edda solve the mystery of Ruby Rest before she becomes statistic number three? Ruby Rest is a true edge-of-your-seat thriller interwoven with a passionate romance and rich, evocative images in the style of Diana Gabaldon. A sensuous debut novel with timeless appeal for women of all ages and background.
