About this book

SHE WANTED ALL HIS LOVE. Nicola's had never been a real marriage; Steve's real wife had been his job, and she only his mistress. He thrived on the dangerous life of a foreign correspondent until one day she gave him a choice: he could keep his career or save his marriage. He opted for his career, and Nicola convinced herself she wanted the divorce she began seeking. Until one night Steve reappeared, ready to begin anew—in the same old way. Nicola's head told her not to fall for him again, but how could she fight her heart?

A GOLDEN TRAIL TO HEARTBREAK AND HEAVEN "Take up a man's profession and there's not a man alive who will think of you as a woman!" Remembering her mother's words, young doctor Aurelia Breighton thought herself quite without charm--until she encountered virile Clay Guardian along a journey to the magnificent Klondike. As she raced to rescue her innocent sister from a scandal--armed only with her grandmother's steel barrel revolver--Aurelia found the dangerous and exciting Yukon a far cry from prim Philadelphia. Clay was eager to be Aurelia's partner on the Chilkoot Trail, because he too was in pursuit of her sister--for reasons of his own. He and Aurelia braved the meanest thirty-three miles on earth together, while they fought for a love shadowed by disbelief and distrust. His honor demanded a high price, and her heart was already deep in debt. (less)

Wojciech Żukrowski

"Draining heat, brilliant color, intense smells, and intrusive animals enliven this sweeping Cold War romance. Based on the authors own experience as a Polish diplomat in India in the late 1950s, Stone Tablets was one of the first literary works in Poland to offer scathing criticisms of Stalinism, and was censored when it was first submitted for publication. Stephanie Krafts translation opens this book for the first time to English-speaking readers." -- Amazon.com
