Summary
The Abbey’s Secret: A Lost Twin’s Tale
Beth believed marriage to Edgar Collins would rescue her from a life of servitude, but her future became darker than she could ever imagine. Married life was far from the bliss she’d hoped for.
When the legitimacy of her twin babies is questioned, James and Daisy are taken away. James is adopted by Edgar’s wealthy uncle, Lord Redfern, and raised at Redfern Abbey. Daisy, however, is sent to a cruel couple who treat her as a maid.
