Title: The Weir House
Description: He wanted her to pose as his fiancée - for seven dramatic days which changed the course of her life...

Philip wants to marry Eve Brayle. It is her way out - he is rich, not too old, and has been in love for years - and he has even secretly funded her lifestyle, such that it is. Eve feels trapped, but he isn't a man she can accept. Unlike her friend Marcia, who cheerfully accepts an ‘ordinary’ life without complaint, Eve has known better and wants better. 

A chance encounter then changes things - Lewis Belamie pays her to act as his fiancée for a week. To the irrepressible Eve, pretending to be the fiancée of a total stranger was a wonderful joke - and she was getting paid for it. But to Lewis it was serious business. A future wife would impress his wealthy grandmother perhaps enough to alter her will in his favor, over his brother and illegitimate cousin.

Adventure, ambition, and disappointment all follow after she journeys to Cornwall with Lewis, where Eve eventually nearly dies after what appears to be a suicide attempt because of a marriage that has seemingly failed. However, the mysterious and mocking Felix really does love her. Just who is he; how does Eve end up with him; and what part does ‘The Weir House’ play in her life? Has Eve’s restlessness and relentless search for stability ended.
