description: Fleeing the evil purposes of her cruel guardian to the ancestral estate of her family's most despised enemy, Amabel Lockridge fears discovery when she falls in love with her handsome protector.
  
  Amabel Lockridge had to escape.  Her cruel guardian was about to sell her as a "love slave," an innocent dark-haired beauty destined for the Orient and a life of luxury... and shame.  Instead, a disguised Amabel fled to the only have she knew -- Baldemar, the ancestral estate of Brian Wetherly, her family's most despised enemy.  Here, her guardian would never seek her; here, she would be safe... until her growing desire for the handsome Wetherly betrayed her.  Soon nothing could keep Amabel from Brian's arms, but everything could keep them from their true destiny -- her shocking deception and the lifelong feud between the families that could destroy their future.  Unless Amabel and Brian found a way to ease the sins of yesterday with a love that held all the promise of tomorrow....
