A Chinese monk striding down the aisle was the first shock
at countess-to-be Evelyn Stanton’s wedding. To watch him
dispatch three groomsmen, unarmed, and to learn that he was
white and the long-lost heir to the Earldom of Warhaven,
was the second. He would be her husband?
ONE MISSION
After the slaughter of his family in far-off China, Jacob
Cato found sanctuary. In a Xi Lin temple he learned to be
strong, but now he had a grander goal: to reclaim his
English heritage and the woman he’d left behind.
ONE DESTINY
Revenge. It poisoned everything he’d learned, everything
he’d done, and yet every fiber of Jacob burned for it—just
as he burned for the beautiful but very English Evelyn.
Long ago, the conspiracy to kill his family had stranded
him, lost Jacob in the exotic East and made him
unrecognizable to his countrymen…and women. He had not
forgotten that past. It was to make peace that he had
returned. The manner was yet to be decided.
