About the book
She had a fiery spirit only one man could tame ... The vitality of colonial Virginia had transformed Lucy d’Autrecourt Blackheath into a defiant and self-assured young woman - and made her restless and hungry for adventure. When a parcel arrives from England, unearthing a long-buried secret, not even her beloved family can stop Lucy from pursuing her perilous fate. In bustling London, Lucy searches for a past encased in shadow, veering recklessly close to unseen dangers- until a stranger pulls her safely from the city’s clutches. But Dominic St Cyr, Earl of Valcour, is no hero. Behind the proud face of a Celtic warrior is a blackguard’s heart, and a tender soul troubled by personal demons. As Lucy delves into Valcour’s mysterious world, she discovers a softness behind his brooding eyes, but still trembles at the future she is about to embrace. It might be an intoxicating dream ... or a cruel nightmare that threatens to destroy everyone she has ever loved.
