Sinossi

Freshly home from her Finishing School in Florence, the beautiful young Lady Odela Ford finds to her dismay that her new stepmother, the Countess of Shalford, is scheming against her and her beloved father. Odela’s mother, who she adored, has died and her father has married again rather too quickly.To her horror and mystification she overhears one day her stepmother ordering her lover, the Viscount More, to marry Odela – for her money as he has very little himself.This is the first that Odela hears of the American oil shares that her late mother left her, which have now accumulated into a vast fortune. Unwilling to tell her father that he is being betrayed by his wife, Odela seeks refuge with her old Nanny at the country house of the Marquis of Trancombe. Almost straight away there is an undeniable and irresistible attraction between her and the handsome Marquis. But no sooner has she found safety than new danger appears in the form of a ruthless thief and she finds herself, together with the Marquis, imprisoned under threat of death. Will she and her hero die ignominiously before their love can be awakened?

     A need to protect he can’t deny. 
     An enemy out to destroy them both. 
    Foreign service officer Emily Dane has never backed down from danger. But when she risks everything to free two girls from a sex-trafficking ring in Paris, she lands in the crosshairs of a ruthless crime lord. Now the hunter has become the hunted. 
    Her only hope of survival? The one man she swore she’d never let get close to her again. 
    Former Navy SEAL Nathan Long hasn’t forgotten the night Emily walked into his arms—or how she walked out the next morning without so much as a goodbye. When she vanishes, he’ll stop at nothing to bring her home. Protecting her is his mission. Wanting her again is the complication he can’t resist. 
    As bullets fly and tempers flare, Emily and Nathan must learn to trust each other before the enemy closes in. But giving in to their need could cost them more than their hearts… it could cost them their lives.

    It’s the nineteen sixties. Life was different then. But Tyneholme, the magnificent, historic home of one of Brisbane’s pioneering families, the well-known Chaseleys, endures. Dickie Chaseley, grandson of the first Chaseley to arrive in Australia, is a respected businessman, and his vivacious wife, Vivienne, is a much-loved patron of a large number of charities. 
      
    Circumstances have drastically changed young Laura Dawson’s comfortable and sheltered life and she gratefully accepts what she sees as a lifeline, a job working with Viv Chaseley. Laura moves into Tyneholme and into the unbelievably amazing world of the Chaseleys. Working with Viv gives Laura the confidence she knows she lacks, and it brings new meaning to her previously uninspiring life. 
      
    She meets Dickie and Viv’s elder son, Richard, and his lovely wife, Sara, and their younger son, the dark and slightly dangerous, Nicolas. Then the Chaseleys’ only daughter arrives home from the UK. Viv had said she was sure her daughter and Laura would become great friends, but nothing could have prepared Laura for her meeting with the poised, worldly, so very attractive Rosemary Chaseley.
