Mrs. Juliet Haskins enjoys her simple life with her husband, although her days are a far cry from her aristocratic upbringing. Who would have thought that tutoring those less fortunate would give her such satisfaction? And she has learned that, in the arms of Daniel, nothing is more important than the love they share. Lord Hugh Parsons has desired Juliet for many years. Her beauty was a gift for him alone, and his anger has never eased since the day she ran away with the stable boy. For two years, he has searched for her, and now that his prize in his grasp, he is not letting her go. All he must do is see her husband hanged, and Juliet will be at her rightful place at his side. When Daniel is taken from their home for the accusation of crimes he did not commit, Juliet calls on her sisters, invoking the vow they once made to come to one another’s aid. But what Juliet needs to save her husband may not reside with her sisters, but rather a secret held in the journals of Scarlett Hall. Ballad of the Innocents is the seventh book in the Secrets of Scarlett Hall series and is best enjoyed when read within the series. Filled with romance, adventure, and a dash of mystery, this book promises to be a page-turner.
