Masquerade Waltz is defiinatly one of my favorite books by Clausdette Williams.

It was to be a huge joke, no body was to get hurt, hell no one was even supposed to find out the truth, but hese things always have a way of coming out, only this time Waremont had fallen in love, not with the Huntly's daughter no, but with their ward, Maxine Tarnover. Maxine is a hot-tempered, bewitching lovely woman, with raven hair and of course an beautiful complexion, didn't everybody!!

Unfortunatly a murder has taken place, and Waremont always attracted to intrigue, desides to stay in the little hamlet until it is solved. The only problem was in staying they risked Maxine and Clair, the Huntly's unmarried daughter who Leigh took and interest in, finding out that they lied to them, which of course they do.
