A LILY ENCHAINED... In the gloom of her dank prison cell, tears glittered on Caresse de Villier's silken cheeks. For reasons she did not know, the beautiful French aristocrat had been taken captive and branded with a shameful "scarlet lily". But now the iron door had just swung open, and a tall, masked stranger stood before her. As his dark, piercing eyes searched her face, Caresse felt fear - and desire stir. Seducer or savior, his touch ignited a fiery yearning that would soon bind them together in passion's dangerous embrace... A ROGUE ENCHANTED... Lucien St. Amant had come to France driven by one desire only: revenge. Instead, the Louisianna plantation owner found himself transfixed by a woman whose radiant beauty glowed through the stone walls of her prison and sent desire raging through him. Sworn to possess her in passion and fury, Lucien made Caresse de Villier an offer she couldn't refuse: freedom in exchange for marriage. But as the sultry heat of New Orleans days gave way to searing southern nights, it was his tempting bride who soon enslaved him - with a wild, wanton love that could either destroy them both or join their hearts forever!
