A handsome diplomat on a deadly mission to deliver a priceless necklace
is in no position to get involved with a common tavern wench--no matter
how breathtakingly beautiful she is.'
But there's more to the lovely tavern wench than Roman Forbes first
surmises (including his pocket watch, which somehow made its way into
her possession). With a bounty on her head, Tara Griffin cannot afford
to fall for the handsome Roman, a nobleman who has no place for a
commoner in his life.'
But when the search for a treasure to save a man's life brings the
nobleman and the wench together on a special mission, fate sweeps them
into each other's arms. And running to save their lives, Roman and Tara
discover an overwhelming passion--and an everlasting love.'
