The Treasure of Owl’s Roost Abbey by Mindy Burbidge Strunk

An apple a day keeps the doctor away. But who wants apples, anyway?

All Tes Molina wants is for others to believe she is strong, even if that isn’t always the case. But when she starts receiving threatening letters, demanding a treasure she doesn’t have, Tes realizes she must do everything she can to protect her family, even if it means risking her own life. What she needs most is a trusted friend, someone to lean on. But with a faceless enemy stalking her every move, who can she trust?
Dr. Liam Maclean has worked his whole life to prove he is not the same as his irresponsible father. Liam is only in Northumberland for a few months and the last thing he needs are entanglements. But the longer he spends with Miss Molina, the more understands his father’s irresponsible nature. If he understands his father, does it mean he is like him?
As the threat grows, so do their feelings for each other. If they make it out alive, will they follow expectations or let their hearts guide the way?
