As they journey from London north to Cumberland on a treasure hunt, Genevieve and Xavier, two old friends, find that they each are fighting a strong attraction to the other. Original.
Teresa DesJardien lives in Seattle. She is married with grown children, and growing grandkids. She’s been a financial and a file clerk, a mommy, a page, a bookseller, a very young and hot grandma, and an author. She has received two Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Nominations and three Regency Rake of the Month Awards.
The premise: Six 20-somethings, friends since childhood, set out North on a treasure hunt to avoid the sweltering heat.
Miscellaneous notes: One of the few books where the promising premise could not overcome the boredom of the actual plot. The clues laid out all involve the history of the English territory in which they travel. As an American native, I could not have possibly been more bored with the hunt itself.
