LAST SUMMER (PB)

Wild-spirited Effie Gillies has always lived on the tiny, remote island of St Kilda. When Lord Sholto, heir to the Earl of Dumfries, visits, the attraction between them is instant. For one glorious week she guides the handsome young visitor around the isle. Three months later, St Kilda falls silent as the islanders are evacuated. Effie is surprised to be offered a position working on the Earl’s estate. Sholto is back in her life but their differences now seem insurmountable, even as the tension between them grows.
