Precious Passion by Elizabeth Doyle, Kensington Publishing Corporation Staff

From the Publisher

In financial straits, Aurora Black must marry or lose her true passion-her piano. She settles for the man her mother has chosen, then seeks to delay the inevitable by selling the one treasure her father left her years before. To do so, she must visit the seedier side of town.

Max Birmingham, a famous rake and titled gentleman, frequents the worst establishments the city offers, always in search of a part of himself that he's lost. He finds it when he hears Aurora's dramatic music.

He decides he cannot live without her and hatches a plan that will land both of them in a passionate disaster.

Returning home the next day, Aurora finds her mother on her deathbed and sets out to find the mysterious man rumored to have saved her from trouble the day before. Max joins her and the two return to her mother's birthplace to find a cure.

Instead of a cure, they find an ancient madness that will destroy any hope of a future. Fighting time and an enemy within her own house, Aurora must choose between the man she loves and the man society demands she marry.
