WILD DESIRE is truly a romance for the light of heart; the tale of two souls at war with their nature coming together to discover something that neither had ever had. It is a story of love found at the worst of times, which just happens to make them the best of times. Lori Brighton has a winner with this one and I look forward to reading many many more.

Wild, secretive, and daring, that is what all the ladies have always said about Colin Fitch. In one spot of trouble and off to another, always on the go, never stopping to catch his breath...that is the way life is supposed to be lived. Yes life had been good to Colin...until now. On the run from men looking to use his blood and his family to unlock the secrets that they hold, Colin is still basking in the adventure but, when life throws him together with Bea, he finds that all he really wants is a few moments of silence. How can he promise Bea anything when he has nothing to offer? No matter how much his heart has become involved in protecting her Colin must walk away...right?

From the stuffy castle of the highlands, Beatrice Edmund has been isolated and scorned all her life. Never really fitting in anywhere, Bea's only hope for life is traveling with her cousin on a wild adventure...defying her grandmother, escaping Scotland, and finding something better, no something bigger, than anything she has had. Bea never knew that this adventure would turn her ideals, her identity, and everything she ever knew upside down. Egypt seems to be the land of trouble for Bea starting with her very first night when she gets mistaken for a lady she is not. Bea soon learns what it is to be kissed, what it is to yearn for something that is just out of her reach. Bea learns how to want something more; she has learned what it means to hope for Colin. Never one to run into danger, Bea's is not only running for her heart but rather also for her life.
