A good Garwood book.
She has taken London society by storm. Christina Bennett, the ravishing beauty with the mysterious past. Rumor whispers she is a prencess from a far-off kingdom on the continent. But only she holds the secret until the night Lyon, Marquis of Lyonwood, steals a searching, sensuous kiss. A proud, arrogant nobeman with a pirate's passions, he tastes the wild fire smoldering beneath Christina's cool charm and swears to possess her before his is done.
But Lyon soon discovers that his dream of conquest will not be easily satisfied. The feisty and defiant Christina has no fear of him, or aof any other man. She alone is master of ther heart, mistress of her fortune. And though Lyon's hungry caresses dizzy her senses she will not surrender to his love. For is she does, she must also forsake at last her precious secret and her promised destiny.
That was the back cover. Does not work for me. Very intersting story. A really nasty Aunt, who of course abuses her and treats her like dirt. She is a mean jealous one. Lyon's good. Christina is a neat, different add to the mix as is their friends. I like the underlying threat that is always there. And then comes the espionage. Pretty good.
