LADY DRAGON 2/2004. ISBN:0974363952. What will a lady do to keep all she holds dear? Lady Celeste Brystowe has very little left in the world; her ancestral home, Ambellshire; a haunting remembrance that threatens to destroy her life; and a dark secret she will do anything to protect. The last thing she needs, or wants, is a man in her life. Particularly the one man who can unravel the fabric of deceit she has woven, and leave her with nothing but a memory of betrayal. What must a man do to take what is his? Devon de Grenfeld has it all, and as liege lord of Ambellshire, goes to accept the oath of fealty that is due him. He expected it to be a matter easily taken care of. He did not expect to become entangled in a web of intrigue, or to be attracted to a young woman who, mysteriously, fights him at every turn. Together... Devon and Celeste might put the past to rest and salvage the future. But they are caught, instead, in a clash between love and lies that could destroy them both. And put an end, forever, to the noble and courageous Lady Dragon.
