description: An Independent LadyTraveling to Egypt alone and in disguise is perilous indeed for Sarah Pendergrass, Lord Whitehurst's only daughter. She's never traveled outside of England, and Napoleon has invaded Egypt—but her father's life is at stake. To save him, Sarah must return a priceless artifact to its rightful tomb. At the dock in London, the Phoenix is ready to sail and Sarah is anxious to begin her journey...until the man who was once her father's protegé—and is now his bitterest enemy—strides on deck. Her Intrepid LoverJake Mitchell has always been a thrill seeker, driven to chase adventure and glory. He seems driven still, the intensity of his gaze and the magnetic power of his presence undiminished. Sarah remembers him well as a young rogue who stole her place in her father's life. And now he's after the treasure Sarah is determined to return to Egypt. Only he doesn't know she has it. As danger erupts from all sides, Sarah dares not forget the promise she made to her father...but Jake is a danger...and a temptation that may prove to be more than she can handle.
