Opis

Set in the early 1800s of Britain, A Rare Gem is a young woman's search for integrity and respect - entangled in mystery, murder, and suspense - all gently bound in romance. Lady Sage Bolinet McNay survives a tragic accident and the death of her husband. She flees to England to take refuge with her last living blood relative, Lisette Bolinet Belington, and most importantly, to find someone, who is powerful enough to defeat the evil of Richard Douglas and help her take back what is rightfully hers.
Lady McNay is considered by the ton to be an eccentric. Her unconventional clothes, bold jewels, and wild hair, cause her to be a topic of gossip and rumours. She is an emotional, passionate, bold, and artistic woman who is incapable of being anyone but herself: a rare gem. Lord Peter William Grey, the fifth Duke of St. Ayre, is one of the most respected and wealthiest peers of the realm. He is a masterful blend of refined English gentleman and Viking warrior. He is an intense, commanding, temperamental man who can be just as hot-tempered as he can be kind and gentle - the kind of alpha male that makes women swoon.
As the Fates would have it, they literally end up in each other's arms. It is love at first sight; however, their path to happiness is laden with obstacles. After two seemingly coincidental brushes with death, Sage exiles herself back to her estates in Scotland.
His Grace, torn by misunderstandings, pride, his undeniable love for this enchanting woman, and his warrior's need to protect all that is his, and he does know in his heart she is his, continues his pursuit to uncover the true danger she is in.
