She had arrived in Calais as Connie the waitress trying to
scope out the area that she and her sisters had been born
in and try to find out where they were. She found her
stepfather dead and the estate searching for the daughters
of Ophelia LeBeau, but Danae LeBeau had only had the
courage to come forward when her sister Alaina was almost
killed while fulfilling her obligation. Now she steps
forward to do what she has to do. She had no idea that in
staying on the estate for the two weeks she would feel like
THE BETRAYED member of the family.
Zach Sargent won the job as a contractor to repair the
dilapidated LeBeau Mansion that was damaged in a recent
storm. He has no idea that his search for answers
concerning his father's deathbed confession would bring him
face to face with danger. He has to know what his father
did that had him so very upset. With the job he figures
while he is working he could snoop to find the truth,
finish the work and go back to New Orleans. He had no way
of knowing that Danae would not only knock him off his feet
and put a crimp in his plans but wedge her way into his
heart.
THE BETRAYED is an emotional, action packed story that
takes the reader back into the haunting swamps of
Louisiana. Author Jana DeLeon brings us the second of her
Mystere Bayou: Family Inheritance in the same
exciting
theme with another fantastic couple. Danae and Zach both
have secrets but they slowly begin to rely on each other.
If your idea of romance is immediate burning sheets you
will not find this here. Ms. DeLeon, gives you the full
spectrum of feelings, the wanting and stepping back before
finally giving in to the full desire the couple has come to
feel. After reading The Accused I was very much looking
forward to the next book and I was not dissatisfied with
this one and look forward to the next.
One day on the job and contractor Zach Sargent is ready to believe the dilapidated old LeBeau mansion is haunted. Some intruder—earthly or not—is threatening the youngest LeBeau sister, back to claim her inheritance. And though Danae keeps her distance from the sexy hired hand, he falls for her in a heartbeat. Like Danae, Zach has come back to Calais in need of answers to troubling questions about the LeBeau family past. But Danae must never know who he really is and he can't let his attraction to her stop his search…or else a decades-old evil will claim a new victim
