Graham Tristan, son of an English duke, has ridden with
Egyptian warriors and been called The Panther. After
returning to London, he's determined that he will not be a
virgin when the time comes for him to hang for killing the
man who's tormented his dreams since he was a child. Graham
will have his revenge or die trying. But also haunting his
dreams is a woman with red hair and green eyes.
Jillian Quigley, an earl's daughter, will not wed the man
her father has chosen for her and decides that selling her
virginity is the only way she can acquire enough money to
run away to America. Her heart's desire is to attend
Radcliffe University.
At the brothel where they come together, Graham is not
expecting his assignation to be a lady, or for her to turn
out to be his destiny -- the woman of his dreams. But
Jillian will not give up her dreams for a man. However, a
journey together to find an ancient treasure in Egypt has a
way of changing their lives forever.
THE PANTHER & THE PYRAMID is book four in Ms. Vanak's
exciting and romantic Egyptian series featuring the
adventures of the Khamsin, Egyptian Warriors of the Wind,
and it holds all sorts of little secrets. It's a wonderful
story of discovery and romance, and highly recommended
reading. Other titles of the series include THE FALCON &
THE DOVE (11/02), THE TIGER & THE TOMB (12/03) and THE
COBRA & THE CONCUBINE (5/05) -- all excellent books.
Graham Tristan had been tormented too long. For years he
had lived in fear. He was physically strong: during his
childhood exile, he had ridden with the Khamsin — Egyptian
Warriors of the Wind. He had learned their code, been
called The Panther. But still he feared. And there was a
new face that haunted his dreams. It was the face of a
woman.
Red hair, the color of blood. Green eyes, the color of
emeralds. And that face, that body — the memory
threatened to consume him. True, he was a dangerous man,
accepted back to the ton despite his upbringing. But
there were those who dared oppose him, and in certain ways
he remained untried. In his dreams, this woman threatened
all he sought to protect, all he thought to hide. She was
more perilous even than the ancient treasure that would
draw him back to Egypt, back to the shifting sands where
he’d been raised: This woman would uncover his heart.
