<p><font size="5"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:14px;">&quot;Rich in emotion, romance, and adventure.... The author's melodic voice adds elegance and weight to the stormy tale of a woman's hidden destiny.&quot; --Shelby Reed, author of <em>The Fifth Favor</em> and <em>Seraphim<br /><br /></em>&quot;Ms. Brandon swept me away to a gilded land of Indian royalty and British occupation, then out to sea to battle pirates on the way to New Orleans and the War of 1812. Epic historical romance with just a touch of Kismet--perfect!&quot;--Kelly McCrady, author of <em>The Empire's Edge</em>.<br /><br /></span></font></p>
