In
a debut romance as passionate and sweeping as the British
Empire,
Meredith Duran paints a powerful picture of an aristocrat
torn between
two worlds, an heiress who dares to risk everything...and
the love born
in fire and darkness that nearly destroys them.
From exotic sandstone palaces...
Sick
of tragedy, done with rebellion, Emmaline Martin vows to
settle quietly
into British Indian society. But when the pillars of
privilege topple,
her fiancé's betrayal leaves Emma no choice. She must turn
for help to
the one man whom she should not trust, but cannot resist: Julian
Sinclair, the dangerous and dazzling heir to the Duke of
Auburn.
To the marble halls of London...
In
London, they toast Sinclair with champagne. In India, they
call him a
traitor. Cynical and impatient with both worlds, Julian has
never
imagined that the place he might belong is in the embrace of
a woman
with a reluctant laugh and haunted eyes. But in a time of
terrible
darkness, he and Emma will discover that love itself can be
perilous --
and that a single decision can alter one's life
forever.
Destiny follows wherever you run.
A
lifetime of grief later, in a cold London spring, Emma and
Julian must
finally confront the truth: no matter how hard one tries to
deny it,
some pasts cannot be disowned...and some passions never die.
