from his servants - and his wife. When he discovered the trick
Venetia had played on him he was furious. She had only her quick
wits to protect her from his wrath. On the journey to India they
quarrelled and sparred, each getting the measure of the other,
while the growing attraction between them became impossible to
ignore. In India they travelled to the North-West frontier, to a
fort that was under constant attack by the Russians. And there,
just as she and her husband discovered their love, they were caught
up in danger that threatened to part them. How they overcame all
the obstacles is told in this exciting and romantic novel by
