Jasmine Tristan was no stranger to the upper crust of
English society. And yet, though adopted by a viscount, she
was called the "Brown Scorpion" and knew the cruel sting of
isolation. When her anger won out, her mother voiced fears.
Was Jasmine truly bad at her core, like her sultan father
from whom they'd fled? How could she be, when with Lord
Thomas Claradon she'd known a moment of pure beauty? Their
kiss had been scorching as a desert sun. But like a
sandstorm, it was misdirecting: Thomas's mother's disdain
and his loyalty to family and duty put him forever out of
reach. Only a return to her birthplace, a quest to find her
roots, would bring Jasmine the answer-- and it would prove
that true love could triumph over ignorance, passion over
prejudice.
