Perilous Legacy

Author's Note: This book was previously published by Montlake Romance under the title, Escaping Vegas.

A $1,300 inheritance lands Madalina Maitland in unexpected danger. On a harmless trip to Vegas, she finds herself accosted from a casino by men with evil intent. Only her wits and aid from churlish but handsome stranger Cole West save her from an unknown fate.

The terror doesn't stop there. After accepting Cole's offer of a ride from Vegas to Southern California, Madalina discovers the hard way that the men out to get her will not be deterred. Cole thinks they're interested in a small dragon left to her along with the money. Madalina isn't so sure.

Will she figure out the mystery of the little stone dragon before time runs out? Or will she become just another homicide statistic?

Join Madalina and Cole on an adventure filled with intrigue, danger, and romance. If the two don't kill each other first.
