Coral
She was a red-haired, emerald-eyed beauty, an actress on stage and off, prepared to give her life to the theater until runaway aristocrat Gerard Mallory invaded her world and changed it forever. He wouldn't be an ensign to suite his noble father's design - but he would become an actor, playing opposite the ravishing Coral Maguire, traveling with her troupe to the farthest reaches of the land.

Little did Coral dream that this brash intruder would carry her to the ends of the earth...on a daring secret mission to France to rescue her imprisoned sister...in flight from Ireland and a false charge of murder...and finally, onto the New York stage.
