As such, she is the perfect chaperon for Rebecca, the young sister of a successful Boston businessman and former Colonial soldier. CRAVES AN UNTAMED MAN Samuel Hartley may be wealthy, but his manners are as uncivilized as the American wilderness he was raised in. Who wears moccasins to a grand ball? His arrogant disregard for propriety infuriates Emeline, even as his boldness excites her. TO RELEASE HER PASSION... But beneath Samuel's rakish manner, he is haunted by tragedy. He has come to London to settle a score, not to fall in love. And as desperately as Emeline longs to feel this shameless man's hands upon her, to taste those same lips he uses to tease her, she must restrain herself. She is not free. But some things are beyond a lady's control... 2462571 1 5 2008 To Taste Temptation (The Legend of the Four Soldiers, #1) total:263|5:64|4:93|3:82|2:18|1:6| 263 980 417 50 4 6 false false Sun Apr 13 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 30 16:47:16 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 30 16:49:53 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 1 false false Fri Nov 07 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Aug 28 11:25:01 -0700 2008 Fri Nov 07 10:21:54 -0800 2008
