Jewel of Winter
Publisher Description
A country girl at the mercy of a cold-hearted thief with more secrets than scruples.
As a widow, Jessamine Watson gained the freedom she'd always desired. Her late husband left her his sole possession, an inn on the north road to Scotland. When a trio of gentlemen appears at the doorstep of her isolated inn during a snowstorm, Jess indulges the curiosity coursing through her veins, though it costs her everything.
To the petite innkeeper, Edmund is a wealthy thief. When she overhears a private conversation, he takes her captive, using her to hide the stolen jewels. He never expects her to cross him. Edmund issues a simple ultimatum: return the jewels or repay the debt...with her body.
**First book in a series. Each book focuses on a unique relationship during the same time frame.**
