Jonas went to hunt for missing Renaissance jewels. Verity went along to snare a husband. Jonas Quarrel was lean, sexy, and equally capable of quoting Renaissance poetry or wielding a dagger. Sure enough, her adventuring lover was soon off to an Italian villa rebuilt on a Pacific Northwest island. Before long he would be looking for new excitement, leaving Verity behind to run her gourmet restaurant in a California resort, hold on to misty colored memories, and wonder what she was going to do if she were pregnant with his child. A big, soft, four-poster bed might be the ideal place to try out her lures! But in this ancient mansion of hidden passageways and mysterious perils, there were some deadly traps for those blinded by love…unless Verity could help Jonas discover the most precious treasure a woman and man can find..
