Romance Historical

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.

SUMMARY

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.
