Good news! Zebra Books is reissuing the early Shannon Drake classics. Fans will recognize Shannon (who also writes as Heather Graham and Heather Graham Possezzere) and her husband Dennis on the cover. This is the second time the couple have posed for one of Shannon's books. Beautifully written and incredibly complex, Ondine is set in England during the reign of Charles II. It offers readers everything from political intrigue, divided loyalties, treachery, and revenge, to sweet love and stronger bonds while weaving throughout the mythology of the undine water nymph as well as articulating the Beauty and the Beast fairy tale. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Lord Chatam needed a wife, for revenge.Ondine,once a pampered lady became a helpless pawn with a noose around her neck.A flash of destiny made him claim the condemned Ondine for his bride.

I found this among my mother's shelves of paperbacks and was surprisingly impressed. The characters are well developed and their flaws make them frustrating and likable at the same time. The plot is unique and engaging. One of my favorite Shannon Drake/Heather Graham books, by far, and highly recommended.
