PRINCESS OF THE DESERT Cecile Villier was a daughter of France but a child of the desert. Born to a rich Frenchman and a Bedouin beauty, the lovely woman found no comfort in the immense wealth of Parisian society. Intent on finding a home she could call her own, she returned to her mother's birthplace: the Sahara. There she found freedom in a new way of life--and the most captivating man she'd ever seen. Matthew Blackmoore had become one with the desert and its people. To Cecile, the dashing young Englishman embodied this strange place: He blazed with passion, and in the horseman's heated embrace she knew she risked destruction. But the oasis of his kiss proved a haven from the dangers of the fierce wilderness, and the resourceful beauty was determined to make both the man--and the land--her own.

Long ago, there lived the Drakon, or dragon. They ruled the land, shifting from man to smoke then beast. Then came the Other, wrought of mud. As the Others grew, the Drakon diminishes. And as of 18th century England, there are almost none. Amalia is one of the last, and supposedly the least powerful. Having failed to complete the ritual needed to gain her powers, Lia is unable to turn to smoke or dragon. But what her family doesn't know is that Lia has her own sort of power, she can dream of the future. And the future she sees isn't a pretty one. All Zane knows is that Lia's family has hired him to find the Draumr, the diamond that has the power to enslave the drakon. He doesn't know that Lia's visions foretell them to be lovers, and her family to be their enemy. At Lia's insistence, the two pair up to find the one thing that can truly destroy the drakon.
