description: THE TRUE BEAT OF A WARRIOR'S HEART
  
  His silver blond hair blows back from his magnificent face. His black leather breeches hug every inch of his well-muscled thighs. He is every woman's fantasy; he is the virtual reality game hero Vad. And Gwen Marlowe finds him snoring away in her video game shop.
  
  She knows he must be a wacky wargamer out to win the Tolemac warrior look-alike contest. But the passion he ignites in her is all too real. Swept into his world of ice fields and formidable fortresses, Gwen realizes Vad is not playing games. On a quest to clear his name and secure peace in his land, he and Gwen must forge a bond strong enough to straddle two worlds. A union built not on virtual desire, but on true love.
