The Goddess of Love
While Corena waits for her father to return from Greece she receives a horrifying demand for ransom. Unless she delivers Lord Warburton, a noted collector of antiques shortly to visit Delphi, into the hands of bandits her father will be tortured to death!
Forbidden to tell Lord Warburton the truth, Corena is smuggled aboard his yacht. Discovery was inevitable — so was the mutual attraction that blossomed as sun-kissed days followed moonlit nights.
As thy near their destination Corena' heart is torn asunder. How can she sacrifice the man she loves in order to save the father she adores...?
