FORTUNE'S CHILD ... DESTINY'S WOMAN

Caught up in a dangerous scheme of international revenge, she found herself orphaned ... penniless ... forced to become Rudyard Thorpe's bride.

Against her will, the marriage became an affair of passion, only to be shattered by the treacherous tides of fate ... Tides that would sentence Julia to a life of exotic decadence ... Tides of lust and violence that would rise again and again before she would learn to embrace the love that had branded her heart ...

About the Author

Jennifer Blake was born near Goldonna, Louisiana, in her grandparents' 120-year-old hand-built cottage. She grew up on an eighty-acre farm in the rolling hills of northern Louisiana. While married and raising her children, she became a voracious reader. At last, she set out to write a book of her own. That first book was followed by more than forty others, and today they have reached more than nine million copies in print, making Jennifer Blake one of the best-selling romance authors of our time. Her most recent novel is Love's Wild Desire.
Jennifer and her husband live near Quitman, Louisiana, in a house styled after old Southern planters' cottages.
