My One and Only
He was a daring cat burglar who never suspected his heart could be stolen....
When Kitty Fontaine invades the opulent homes of London aristocrats, she seeks only one the Blood of India, the exquisite ruby that will ransom the life of her father. But someone else covets the fabulous gem--the coolly audacious burglar known as the Tiger. A master of seduction, he steals into ladies' bedrooms to relieve them of their valuables, only to capture their hearts in the process.
One night over a plundered safe, she will find herself face-to-face with her rival, instantly spellbound by his smoky gaze. Enticing her with a luring challenge, he brands her with a searing kiss and claims her body as his own. It will not be their last encounter--and she begins to suspect that it was not their first.
Does the Tiger truly have a connection to her painful past? As fate and the ruby bind them on a perilous quest, Kitty will risk her life and freedom. And for a love she never expected to rekindle, she will risk her heart and soul....
