(Mass Market Paperback)
Disguised as a sentinel, the emperor of Columbyana is shocked that his next bridal candidate isn't interested in becoming an Empress. Determined to teach the haughty beauty a lesson, the Emperor strikes a bargain with her stepfather, and claims her as his bride.
Determined not to marry, lovely Lady Morgana blithely refuses to be considered as a candidate for the Emperor of Colombyana's bride. Then when her stepfather's rash statement results in her being claimed as wife by one of the Emperor's "emissaries," she is surprised by the growing mutual attraction between them and furious when she eventually discovers whom it is she really loves. Cold magic, dark intrigue, old vengeance, and villainous plots weave a deadly web around our unwary protagonists in this engrossing, secret-laden tale that reprises characters from earlier books and nicely concludes Jones's (22 Nights) "Emperor's Brides" trilogy.
