Set on the magical Massachusetts island, True Love introduces characters from a new generation of Montgomery-Taggerts, the beloved family from Deveraux’s classic novels.
Just as Alix Madsen is finishing up architectural school, Adelaide Kingsley dies and wills her, for one year, the use of a charming nineteenth-century Nantucket house. The elderly woman’s relationship to the Madsen family is a mystery to the spirited Alix—fresh from a romantic breakup—but for reasons of her own Alix accepts the quirky bequest, in part because it gives her time to plan her best friend’s storybook wedding.
But unseen forces move behind the scenes, creaking Kingsley House’s ancient floorboards. It seems that Adelaide Kingsley had a rather specific task for Alix: to solve the strange disappearance of one of the Kingsley women, Valentina, more than two hundred years ago. If that wasn’t troubling enough, Alix must deal with the arrogant (and extremely good-looking) architect Jared Montgomery, who is living in the property’s guesthouse.
Unbeknown to Alix, Jared has been charged with looking after her while she lives on the island—an easy task for him, considering the undeniable chemistry between the two. But Jared harbors secrets of his own, which, if revealed, may drive a wedge between the pair.
With a glorious Nantucket wedding on the horizon, sparks fly, and the ghosts of the past begin to reveal themselves—some of them literally. Finding their lives inextricably entwined with the turbulent fortunes of their ancestors, Alix and Jared discover that only by righting the wrongs of the past can they hope to be together.

Hij, de beste officier van Fort Breck, heeft tot zijn ontzetting de opdracht gekregen "kindermeisje" te spelen. Hij moet de hooghartige LaReina op haar tournee escorteren om haar te beschermen tegen de woeste goudzoekers. Ring is woedend. De Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog nadert en hij moet zich voorbereiden op de strijd. Vreemd genoeg voelt hij zich steeds minder opgewassen tegen de charme en wilskracht van LaReina. Zij wil evenmin van zijn diensten gebruik maken en heeft een heel goede reden om in haar eentje door de uitgestrekte goudvelden van Colorado rond te zwerven. Haar echte naam is Madelyn Worth. In werkelijkheid is zij wanhopig op zoek naar haar ontvoerde, jongere zuster. Maddie durft Ring de waarheid niet toe te vertrouwen - ook al is zij inmiddels hopeloos verliefd. Maar Ring is niet alleen slank, knap en donker, hij is ook heel nieuwsgierig.

Maar wat zal haar verloofde daarvan vinden? De beide zusters, die als twee druppels water op elkaar lijken, besluiten voor één avond elkaars plaats in te nemen. En Caroline’s gereserveerdheid smelt als sneeuw voor de zon zodra Kane’s hongerige lippen de hare dwingend opeisen.
