"The Light at Wyndcliff" by Sarah E. Ladd

Liam Twethewey strides into Pevlyn as the young master of Wyndcliff Hall, finally old enough to inherit his uncle's estate. He has big dreams to revive the china clay pits that were abandoned at his uncle's death. But from the beginning, Wyndcliff is not all it seems. 

Evelyn Bray was born to privilege but her grandfather's gambling took down the whole family. For years now her grandfather has served as steward to the Wyndcliff estate, and Evelyn is a woman out of place. Her father has passed away, her mother is remarried and living with her new family—who Evelyn has never met. Wyndcliff feels like home, but it cannot be.

Shipwrecks are common off the Cornish coast, and Liam is in for a learning curve with his shoreline property. But when more wrecks than normal happen in the weeks following his arrival, suspicions are aroused. Is someone luring ships to an untimely end?

Danger nears when a woman and child are rescued from the most recent wreckage. If the woman recovers her memory she might be able to tell them more about the ship, its crew, and how it came to sink off Wyndcliff's shore. Evelyn helps tend to the newcomers and can't help but be drawn to the new master of the estate.

If you enjoy historical romance with a side of suspense, this is one I would recommend to you. Though it wraps up Sarah E. Ladd's Cornwall novels, it is written in such that it could be a standalone. I do recommend the whole series, as well as other works by this author.

I received my copy of the book from the publisher. All thoughts in this review are my own.
