Summer Chills

by J.H. Rhodes

Lisa Evans is stunned when she inherits a huge house and a small fortune from Blanche Holland, her late grandmother's friend. That summer Lisa becomes a celebrity in her hometown of Devon Falls, New Hampshire. Suddenly everyone pays attention to her, including Van Crawford, an intriguing young insurance man who never noticed her before. Lisa can't help wondering if Van is really attracted to her or to her fortune. She also wonders about mysterious, attentive Monty Holland, the millionaire grandson of Lisa's benefactress. Is he in love with Lisa or with the property that once belonged to his grandmother? And is it possible that either Van or Monty is behind the vicious pranks that have been played on Lisa ever since the old woman's will was read?
