description: MURDER THREATENED TO RUIN THE PERFECT SOCIETY
  
  To most people, Temi was a secluded Greek island of little importance. But its inhabitants knew that Temi was a spiritual haven that offered relief to a world sick with avarice and brutality.
  
  For Daphne Vernon, Temi was her last hope. Left physically and emotionally devastated by love betrayed, Daphne answered the urgent summons of her cousin Sophia, ruler of Temi. She was soon to learn that the imposing matriarch had plans for her--plans that were inextricably linked with the future of the island.
  
  But even as Daphne felt her heart healing... opening once again to love ... under Temi's mystical influence, violent factions within and without were closing in to destroy the utopia.
  
  Could Daphne be strong enough--and wise enough-to protect Temi and its extraordinary secrets?
