Gift of fire

They were destined for passion -- and adventure!

Troubled thoughts haunted Verity Ames when she considered the uncontrollable passion that bonded her to Jonas Quarrel. The world saw him as a Renaissance scholar. Few people knew about the first adventure that had linked their fates, revealing to her the steely strength of his arms... and the mysterious power behind his amber eyes. Now they were hired to find a lost medieval treasure. In a world of hidden passageways and glittering crystals, Jonas's fiery touch still made her shiver with desire, but here a terrible truth could turn their love to ashes -- or stoke its flames into an even hotter fire.
