FREE: Regency Romance Catherine Coulter Older Romance Night Shadow

A confirmed bachelor, Knight Winthrop, no one can believe it when he takes in Lily and her three children.
Lily tells Knight that she is the widow of his cousin who was recently killed in Brussels and that she is the mother to Laura Beth and step-mother to Theo and Sam. Of course, Lily has not told Knight the complete truth and is terrified that he, unused to children, will lose patience and throw them all out into the street. She is surprised to find him tolerant of the children's antics (the scene with Laura Beth in Knight's study drawing is hysterical!) and he is surprised to find himself not only enjoying the children, but also incredibly attracted to Lily. Of course what neither of them knows is that Knight's cousin was murdered and that somewhere among Lily and the children's things are hidden jewels that two criminals are looking for thus endangering Lily and the children. So there's the mystery of the jewels to be solved, and the relationship of Lily and Knight to be resolved with lots of fun along the way.
This was a nice, sweet story and Knight and Lily make a cute couple. An enjoyable read!
