A young lady with a penchant for archaeology is refused permission to excavate the ruins on her new neighbor's estate, and then accused by the handsome-but-wary landowner of trying to somehow trap him... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I enjoyed this story about an unlikely pair who both had an interest in Roman history and archeology. The characters spent a lot of time at digs of Roman ruins. The other main storyline involved time travel, which added a neat element to the focus on Roman history. Although the story has Halloween in the title, there was very little actual focus on Halloween, with the exception of a Halloween Ball at the very end. There was an element of mystery through out with the time travel, and an old woman named Dorcas. The romance was very mild and proper, but also charming. There was also a dog that played a main part in the story. I do wish that Dorcas's role in the story was more clearly explained, but other than that, this story was interesting and well written.
