Cherished
A rich, spellbinding tale of passion and adventure that sweeps from the glittering ballrooms of Regency England to the turbulent shores of America... as a headstrong aristocratic beauty loses her heart to the one man she'd never dreamed she could ever love-her husband.

At sixteen, high-born Lady Emily Brockton had been forced by circumstance to wed the notorious, devastatingly seductive Leon Devereux. But theirs had been a marriage in name only, and the handsome rakehell had soon set sail for America, leaving his chaste young bride alone and at the mercy of every fortune-hunting scoundrel in the ton. Five years later, they would meet again at a society ball... when a masked stranger swept Emily into his virile embrace. But it was a dangerous destiny that brought Devereux back to England and to the woman he'd sworn to possess at all costs. And even as Emily found herself surrendering to his searing caresses, a treacherous enemy threatened to tear her forever from the arms of the man she'd vowed never to love... but now could no longer live without!
