Drew vowed to seek repayment for Spencer's broken pledge, planned to ruthlessly take what had been promised to him. But closer inspection told him that Spencer was in dire straits...and needed him desperately.
Spencer was determined to find the legendary Hapsburg Cross, the lifelong aim of her dying father. Drew was the only man who could help--but he also had the power to hurt her.

Tyler St. James was courting disaster when she teamed up with wily Kane Pendleton to hunt for the gold chalice. But being alone in the Colombian wilderness with a sniper on her tail made even a shaky truce with her fiercest rival look good.
She and Kane had been competing for years, tracking rare art objects across the globe, delighting in their daredevil games of one-upmanship. Tyler made a living out of braving danger-and mastering it. But she couldn't control the desire, or the secret terror, Kane unleashed. Love posed a challenge too risky for the lady adventurer... until Kane showed her anything worth having was worth the dare.
She looked like a ragged, storm-drenched urchin, but from the moment Serena Smyth appeared on his Seattle doorstep, Richard Patrick Merlin recognized the spark behind her green eyes, the wild talent barely held in check. And he knew he would help her learn to control her gift, despite a taboo so ancient that the reasons for its existence had been forgotten. But he never suspected that in his rebellion he would risk all he had and all he was to feel a love none of his kind had ever known.
SHE TAUGHT HIM A FORBIDDEN LOVE
Serena had crossed a country to find him, guided by an instinct born of her determination to become a master wizard. She knew he could be her teacher -- but she'd never expected the charismatic, seductive power that was Merlin's. Nor had she dreamed of the fire he ignited in her body and soul, a flame that burned even hotter than the talent she possessed but did not yet understand. Their love forbidden by an ancient law, Serena and Richard will take a desperate gamble and travel to a long-lost world to change the history that threatens to separate them. But they risk being torn apart forever, destroyed by a cursed land... and their own fierce passions.
