Book Description:
Not even love could stop her . . .

Despite her privileged life in the sultry paradise of Martinique, the beautiful and daring Sapphire Fabergine will never be satisfied until she claims the honor and legitimacy that has been denied her. Sapphire sails to London to confront the aristocratic family who had disowned her before she was even born -- only to find that her father is dead and that his title has passed to Blake Thixton, an attractive yet loathsome distant American cousin.

Convinced Sapphire is determined to bring about his ruin, Blake kidnaps her and sails back to America, where he presents her with a choice: become his mistress or serve him as a maid in his waterfront mansion. Without means in this unfamiliar land, Sapphire is trapped. But she will not compromise her quest for honor so easily -- not even for the man she has come to desire.

Altho the title/name of heroine is kind of over the top, the story is
well written with strong charcters, tension just right. The story centers around the heroine's search for her birth father, her only clues being a few love letters,a magnificent sapphire and a vague story. Fun secondary characters and good follow thru.

I really enjoyed this book. Sapphire is a strong character and the story flows well.

Kariamu O. from MARINA DL REY, CA wrote on 3/26/2006...


Standard RR fare: lots of huffing, foot-stamping outrage from the heroine and aggressive, overpowering kisses/behavior from the hero. The positive difference in this book is the heroine's actions to take control of her life.

It is a very good book. Sapphire is taken to London for her father to give her his last name, but she discovers that her father died. But she is still bound and determined to get the name that she thought she was entitled to. I enjoyed it very much.
