Originally published in December 1994.
SummaryA man of cool demeanor and stubborn solitude, Lord Winter
was a restless wanderer who kept the passions of his heart
well hidden. But now, traveling alone, he has discovered
beneath the ragged costume of a Bedouin boy a remarkable
young woman: Zenia Stanhope, daughter of the extraordinary
English adventuress known as the Queen of the Desert.
Zenia wants nothing of the dangerous adventuring that Lord
Winter lives for. She wants only to reach England, far from
the blood and sand of the desert. But in one night of
terror, condemned to death, their lives are irrevocably
bound by desperate desire.
Zenia escapes to an English world of elegance and comfort,
forsaking the lonely, fearless man who has changed her life
and conquered her heart...until he returns to invade her
sanctuary, and demand that she pay the price of passion.
