The Talisman
A DARING BEAUTY RISKS ALL FOR THE LOVE OF A HANDSOME STRANGER

THE SCANDALOUS STRANGER

Mr. Rhys Fitzwarren spelled trouble from the beginning when he intruded on Miss Alessia Fielding's sheltered life. He was wounded by a mysterious gunshot, and Alessia had to risk her reputation to nurse him to health in an isolated inn.

 But that was the least of the risks the lovely heiress ran with this handsome gentleman whose spell on her grew stronger even as his scandalous past became plainer. He was clearly not a man that any proper young lady would ever dream of marrying. Unfortunately, however, he was the only man to make the independent Alessia lose both her heart and her head!
