Book Cover & Preview Text
Is this the man I married? she asked herself in amazement. It all seemed like a horrible nightmare as she tried to convince herself she would wake up any minute. But in her heart she knew this was not so. In a daze she removed the rings and handed them and the tiara to him. She wanted no part of them or of Francois now. His words broke into her thoughts. "I'll have Gabe contact your mother immediately, and demand she admit her guilt. She'll never know I had anything to do with this. I'll be the distraught husband whose beloved bride was snatched from me on our wedding night. As soon as Hildy admits her guilt, you will meet with an unfortunate accident, mon cherie, and Andre will get the blame."

About the Book
Twenty-one years after Hildy and Jay were finally united in love and marriage, they are celebrating their anniversary. They have one daughter to show for it: Cammie, a charismatic actress, singer, and dancer. Cammie takes a break from a big show in France to attend their anniversary party; when she arrives, she has big news: she’s getting married to a handsome, charming Frenchman by the name of Count Francois Dubonnet II. The whole family flies to France for the joyous wedding, but they can’t shake their suspicions. Something is wrong with the count, but Cammie won’t hear of it. There’s no evidence to prove he’s up to anything. Perhaps their suspicions are unfounded—and perhaps they’re not. Soon after the wedding, Cammie begins to see the true monster that is her husband, and it may be too late for escape. Jeremy Douglass is after his own answers. Raised in the United States, his parents always made him promise never to go to France. After their deaths, he breaks the promise and heads to Europe to figure out his family secrets. Along the way, he discovers Cammie. He is enthralled by the tragic young woman and must save her—but is he too late? Will the secrets of both Cammie and Jeremy ruin the lives of everyone they love?
