THE GRAND PASSION Convinced she is never to find true love, Tess Brownlow decides to settle for extreme fondness and marry Jeremy Beringer. But when kind Jeremy dies tragically at the hands of a drunken "sportsman," Tess vows revenge. She will show handsome Matthew John Lotherwood, Marquis of Bradbourne, what it is like to lose. And her scheme works - too well. Because in trapping her opponent, she traps herself in the intoxicating blend of ardor and desire that makes a passion grand..
