The Curse of Kenton

By Janet Louise Roberts

Heat level
Behind closed doors

**Wicked Wave of Death!** Young, ripe, and penniless, Barbara Ashe was swept by powerful emotions into a marriage with the rich, wildly romantic Duke of Kenton. But soon she was shocked by his evil society friends, mortified by his bursting hot-tempered fits, and plagued by the fear that his worsening heart condition was more than simply the gypsy curse on the men of Kenton. Taunted by her suspicions through chilling, dark nights, she began to trust no one. Someone in that ominous castle was planning murder — and each moment marched Barbara closer to the awful truth!

For your information, not judgment.

Severity reflects intensity, not value — “central theme” means a warning is a core part of the book, not that the book is bad.
