✦ Synopsis

England, 1745. Persia Eames, the daughter of a known witch, spends her life running from her heritage. Her father’s high rank saves her from her mother’s fate, which was death at the hands of the villagers, but can’t protect her forever.

Fate intervenes when Persia is sent to Cornwall for an arranged marriage into the affluent Penwyth family. The Penwyths are consumed with the ambitions of the new gentry and are eager to align Persia’s wealth with theirs. Soon Persia becomes enmeshed in the Penwyth family secrets, including Roger Penwyth, a moody, troubled man, fodder for local gossip and given to strange turns. Roger’s life and hers begin to be inextricably twinned by a passion beyond their control. But Roger isn’t the man she’s been sent to marry. And the villagers are beginning to realize that Persia carries a witch’s heritage in her bloodline. Persia is driven to make a choice, one that holds fateful consequences for herself and for Roger.

With the sweep of historical family sagas like Poldark, gothic suspense novels such as Rebecca, and a story alive with magic, The Penwyth Bride will appeal to lovers of sensual gothic romances.
