Undying Love - Secrets of Roseville, #1

How does one recover after tragic loss demolishes your heart and soul?Meredith Reed grapples with that question every day, especially after she inherits Twin Oaks. The historic plantation is meant for a large family but hers no longer exists. She has some ideas for its future: tear it down; bulldoze it; burn it. Regardless of her incensed family and the handsome, irate estate lawyer's objections. And despite the influence of the Lady in Blue haunting the place. Max Chandler anticipates buying his dream home with the raise from his expected promotion after passage of the historic property preservation legislation he championed.
Twin Oaks is just the sort of place he dreams of. Big and roomy, with lingering echoes of laughter and love from past generations within its very walls. Perfect. Except, perhaps, for the Civil War era ghosts in residence. They'll have to go. When Twin Oaks is threatened with a bulldozer, he has to fight, ignoring his growing attraction to Meredith. Her intentions go against everything he's worked for.
He has no choice but to do all in his power to stop her. Will Meredith's grief destroy her heart and home or will she listen to what the Lady in Blue is trying to teach her?
