Summary

In this beautiful omnibus, two heartwarming stories of magic and matrimony from popular Signet Regency author Amanda McCabe are brought together for the first time.

A Loving Spirit (originally published by Signet Regency in February 2003)
England is a cold, forbidding place for Miss Cassie Richards, who has spent most of her life in Jamaica. Fortunately, she's found warmth in the care of her aunt who's enjoying introducing her niece in high society circles. Their latest visit is to Royce Castle, reputed to be haunted by the family's ancestors. Cassie is intrigued not only by the possibility of glimpsing a specter or two—but by the enigmatic lord of the manor.

Phillip, Earl of Royce, has no interest in his mother's frivolities among members of the ton, or in the rumors of ghosts residing in his home. His scholarly pursuits in Greek history take precedence over the attentions of young ladies seeking a husband, until Cassie's refreshing presence makes him wonder if he's been spending too much time with his nose in a book.

But for Cassie and Phillip to embrace their love, they're going to need a little spiritual guidance...

One Touch of Magic (originally published by Signet Regency in June 2003)
When her husband passed away, Sarah, Lady Iverson, was expected to live off her substantial inheritance until she remarried. Instead she chose to forge ahead with her late husband's work in the excavation of an ancient Viking village discovered near York on the Ransome estate. Believed to be buried there is a treasure, tainted by a witch's spell that proclaims only the pure of heart can touch it. Sarah has no time for such superstitious nonsense as she fears the new Lord Ransome intends to remove her from the property.

Miles Rutledge inherited his uncle's estate and was dismayed to discover an archeological dig being performed on the grounds best suited for growing crops. Although his intellectual curiosity is piqued by Sarah's scholarly pursuits, it is his heart that finds an almost otherworldly connection with her—a connection he prays she feels in return...
