She was married to another man and had promised fidelity, but her body honored no such promise. . . As wild and beautiful as the Irish countryside, Dera Brennan knew from the first that Quint Flannery was the only man she would ever love.

Not even the cold brilliance of diamonds could quench a desire burning with emerald-bright intensity.
