When Love Commands

Marietta Danver: book 3

Savagery & Splendor

This tumultuous love story continues the rapturous adventures of Marietta Danver, a woman whose beauty sets men's hearts aflame. Marietta races to London by carriage to start a new life with the only man she has ever truly loved-Jeremy Bond, the renegade soldier of fortune who has saved her life more than once. But after a horrifying crash, her whole world goes black.

When she regains consciousness ten days later, she finds herself in the care of Lucie Orlov, and her uncle-- the tall, broodingly handsome, wildly passionate Russian--Count Gregory Orlov, notorious as Catherine the Great 's uncrowned emperor and now her banished lover. Never has Marietta encountered such frank sensuality in a man-never has she been so vulnerable. For she has learned that Jeremy left London, taking all of her money and a bewitching blonde with him!
