Sehnsucht einer Lady

Legendäre Helden 2

Miss Margery Derrington and her dear aunts are in dire straits. The discovery of a rare document will hopefully help them fend off their creditors—if it proves to be as valuable as they believe. Margery has reluctantly allied herself with a reclusive scholar to use the document to track down a treasure that could solve their problems. However, the irresistible attraction she feels for her ally is neither expected nor desired.

Rhys Bowen can hardly believe he’s holding de Valery’s enigmatic text in his hands. Deciphering the hidden code and discovering the legendary treasure would establish him as one of Britain’s leading antiquarians and finally free him from the shadow of his late, brilliant father. But when an ancient organization convinces Rhys of the dangers of disturbing the past, he must choose between his conscience and the captivating woman he has sworn to help.
