About the book
The Feathered Shaft For various reasons, Nicola was having to masquerade as the sister of Kurt Thesige. It was a worrying situation, as, quite apart from the ever-present danger that her deception would be discovered, she soon realized that her feelings for him were far from sisterly! Wildfire Quest "We seek the unattainable" was Raoul Leduc's family motto -- but it might more aptly have been Maryan's. For she was the one who was seeking in vain for the land which her father had always felt belonged to him, but in fact was Raoul's; and she who was seeking, even more hopelessly, for Raoul's love . . . The Flower on the Rock In any other circumstances Honor would have been thrilled to be going to the lovely Pacific island of Grand'terre. But it was the family home of Piers Sabre, who had just cruelly jilted her and whom she only wanted to forget. How ironic that the first man she met on Grand'terre, Piers' cousin Arnot Lord, had not got entirely the wrong idea about her and was determined not to let her forget.
