When her cousin Rachel disappears, Sarah Callaway fears the
worst and begins a frantic search for the woman who's her
only living relative. Sarah enlists the aid of Guy Devoran
on the strength that he and Rachel were friends of a sort,
and Rachel has written to her that he's an honest and
honorable man. What Sarah doesn't know is that Guy and
Rachel were much more than friends and that he's already
launched a search for Rachel himself. A search that ended
months earlier in complete failure.
Now, with Sarah at his side, Guy pours himself once more
into finding Rachel, the elusive woman he fancied himself
in love with all those months ago. Guy is sure that Rachel
is in hiding and tries to convince Sarah that her cousin is
not the innocent Sarah insists she is. As time goes by, Guy
realizes it's Sarah who he wants, Sarah he loves. Having
never been honest about his previous affair with her
cousin, Guy isn't about to spill his secrets now. Sarah
knows Guy is keeping something from her but can't begin to
guess what it is.
Their search takes them from the ballrooms of London to the
British countryside with the two of them fighting their
growing attraction every step of the way. Slowly the
intrigues and deceptions of Rachel, the woman they both
dearly loved, come to light. But there's someone else
searching for Rachel; someone who isn't so anxious to have
her found and see her secrets brought to light; someone
who'll see them all greet the dark forever long before they
have any chance for their happy ending.
Although Ross writes genre fiction, her stories are so much
more. A master at immersing her readers, as well as her
characters, in her historical background, Ross has a real
sense of time and place. CLANDESTINE, while sensual and
elegant, is a character driven adventure that never lets
its secrets slip until the final reveal.
She's been watching him for days. Guy Devoran, the
handsome and charismatic nephew of a powerful duke, is
Sarah Callaway's only hope for finding her missing cousin.
But first she must get close enough to uncover the dark
secret that he's hiding.
Honor demands that Guy help Sarah rescue her cousin from
whatever fate has befallen her. Yet he will never let slip
his shameful secret-or drop his guard with this red-haired
beauty who will stop at nothing in her pursuit of the
truth.
From the elegant ballrooms of London to the perilous
smugglers' dens of Devon, their desperate quest leads Guy
and Sarah ever deeper into danger-and closer to forbidden
passion.
