MILLS & BOON - ENCHANTED
The Enchanted Brides - trilogy - Part 3
Elissa Crosby was so used to being the strong one in her family, that it does not occur to her to tell her sisters and their husbands about her troubles. Someone was sending her threatening letters and that spooked her enough to make her spend the night before her birthday in the very spooky D'amour mansion...and of course she sleeps, and there was a full moon, and she wakes up to confront Alex D'Amour who imparts the unwelcome news that her precious Crosby Inn was legitimately his.
Not a great way to inspire love...especially in the case of Elissa. Still, to ensure her family has a good holiday, she puts up with the constant needling of Alex, her sisters' and their husbands' matchmaking games and also deals with the constant, anonymous threats.
Things come to a head her ill-wisher confronts her and finds out her `lightning knee action' and karate chop. After the fellow is carted away her family reproaches her for suffering alone, and she also tells the truth about her Inn not being hers anymore.
Alex returns the deeds to the Inn to her since he had fallen in love with Elissa. She too acknowledges her love and they get married.
One year later, next Christmas, The Crosby girls and their family get together
Helen and Damien Lord with two sets of twins,girls- Gillian and Gloriana, boys Jake and Jerod.
Lucy and Jack Gallagher with their son Jonathan Crosby Gallagher.
Elisa and Alex D'Amour with a baby expected in fall.
The D'Amour manison was restored and opened as a resort, with an upstair room dedicated for the use of single women on their birthdays....on a full moon...
And the Crosby inn was given as free lodging to honeymooners who proved that the D'Amour legend lives on..........
