Lord Charles Falcon driven by obsessiveness and a desire for wealth he will stop at nothing to receive all of the power including the murder of his family. Rosemary is the only one that stands in his way, not allowing her to marry the man she truly loved and then killing him. Rosemary wants revenge and will stop at nothing to destroy Charles. It was an okay book but it switched around a lot from past to present and wasn't really my style of writing.
