He is a brilliant military commander... and every woman's
temptation. When Max Leighton unexpectedly comes to her
golden Mediterranean island, Caro Evers longs to heal his
emotional battle scars. But during one glorious night in his
arms, she discovers a sensual master whose mere touch drives
her to wild abandon.
She is the bewitching angel he can't forget. Jaded by the
glittering ballrooms of Regency London, Max returns to
Cyrene to find the temptress who haunts his dreams... only
to learn that Caro leads a dangerous double life. She's a
warrior as well as a healer -- a member of a secret society
of protectors, sworn to fight evil and tyranny across Europe.
Afraid to lose her heart to Max again, Caro vows to conquer
her fierce tenderness for him and thwart his campaign to win
her. Then a perilous mission of adventure takes them far
from Cyrene's sun-splashed shores, entwining their destinies
and challenging their deepest desires.
