A Shackled Inheritance

A Shackled Inheritance

Author(s): Madeleine McDonald

Location(s): Caribbean, West Indies

Genre(s): Historical, Romance

Era(s): Regency

She wanted to find her family, but would her sister steal her man?
In Regency Scotland, Abigail Carrick takes slavery for granted, until her father’s will reveals she must share her inheritance with two unknown half-sisters, who are free women of colour. Against all advice, Abigail crosses the ocean to meet them.
Fellow passenger Euan Sinclair offers her welcome encouragement. As their friendship deepens, the young lawyer is torn between attraction to Abigail and his loathing of slavery.
Fate throws the slave owner and the abolitionist together, on an island gripped by rumours of a slave revolt. When Euan meets Abigail’s family, will her sister Desiree steal him?
