Her parents have all but disowned her after reports of her shocking misdeeds ruled the scandal sheets for years. Notorious widow and social pariah Alva Webster returns to the United States after twelve years spent in Europe during her marriage.
I love this book so much and want to hand-sell this funny, spooky, and magnificent Gilded Age romance to everyone I know. Rest assured, The Widow of Rose House is 100% a historical romance, complete with charming sequel-bait family members, protagonists smelling like sandalwood (it’s the heroine this time!), sex scenes with protection (more of this in historicals, please), and a central love story that is the embodiment of heart eyes emoji. Ignore your first impressions of the cover - yes, I’m already frantically googling that dress for the inevitable closing date of my Gothic mansion, but the cover doesn’t exactly scream romance novel. CW/TW: heroine is a victim of physical and emotional abuse in former marriage discussion of murder, suicide, violence, and mental institutions (not related to the protagonists).
