In this new Regency romance, a young unwed mother must protect her heart from the charms of her convenient new husband, Lord Torrington. She is not, however, prepared to protect her life.

When the widowed Lord Torrington agreed to spy for the crown, he never planned to impersonate a highwayman, let alone rob the wrong carriage. Stranded on the road with an unconscious young woman, he is forced to propose marriage to protect his identity and her reputation, as well as his dangerous mission.

Trapped not only by her duty to her country but also by her limited options as an unwed mother, Miss Elizabeth Cantrell and her infant son are whisked away to Middlecrest Abbey by none other than the elder brother of her son's absent father. There she is met by Torrington's beautiful grown daughters, a vicious murder, and an urgent hunt for the missing intelligence that could turn the war with France. Meanwhile she must convince everyone that her marriage is a genuine love match if her new husband has any hope of uncovering the enemy.

Determined to keep her son's true identity a secret, Elizabeth will need to remain one step ahead of her fragile heart, her uncertain future, and the relentless fiend bent on her new family's ruin.

Early Praise for Masquerade at Middlecrest Abbey

"Murder is far from no one's thoughts in this delicious new romantic mystery from Abigail Wilson. With scandal dodging every turn of the page, mystery hiding behind the visage of each character, and a romance brewing with an English rake of the worse--and best--sorts, readers will find nothing lacking I was entranced, mesmerized, addlepated, and not a little bit bewildered as I wandered the halls of Middlecrest Abbey." --Jaime Jo Wright, author of the Christy Award-winning novel, The House on Foster Hill

"From the very first page, I was enraptured Masquerade at Middlecrest Abbey has intrigue, mystery, and suspense beautifully enhanced by the vulnerability revealed through memorable characters making this story impossible to put down. A must-read recommendation, this story is exactly what makes me love reading " --Natalie Walters, author of the Harbored Secrets series

"Suspicion shades the affluent grounds of Middlecrest Abbey in this riveting novel by Abigail Wilson. The artful balance of mystery and romance cleverly blends with the Gothic tones of Regency England. With exquisite prose and a layered plot, Masquerade at Middlecrest Abbey is a compelling story not to be missed." --Rachel Scott McDaniel, award-winning author of Above the Fold

What a man
Format: Kindle
This book should be required reading for all Americans. MLK Jr. describes his journey through leading the bus boycotts following Rosa Parks refusal to give up her seat. MLK's conviction in nonviolent resistance even when facing the most vicious hate and attacks is extremely inspiring and admirable.

Detailed View of the Important Montgomery Movement
Format: Kindle
If you have read The Autobiography of Martin Luther King Jr (MLK), incidents of the bus boycott in Montgomery, Alabama are duplicated but conveyed in more detail. The book clearly explained the life and mindset of the participants of the movement. It is a treasury of information on the life, personality and mind of MLK that have guided him throughout his vocation as leader of a non-violent anti-slavery movement. It will benefit all blacks and immigrants like me, even the Left and Radicals, to read MLK's books at this time and in this place of our present world. We can all benefit to apply his movement to our times to make America a better place.
