      “Bronwyn Williams was born and raised at Harlequin Historicals. We couldn’t have asked for a better home or a more supportive family.”

      —Dixie Browning and Mary Williams, w/a Bronwyn Williams

      “I can’t believe it’s been ten years since Private Treaty, my first historical novel, helped launch the Harlequin Historicals line. What a thrill that was! And the beat goes on…with timeless stories about men and women in love.”

      —Kathleen Eagle

      —Suzanne Barclay

      “As a one-time ‘slush pile’ foundling at Harlequin Historicals, I’ll be forever grateful for having been rescued and published as one of the first ‘March Madness’ authors. Harlequin Historicals has always been the place for special stories, ones that blend the magic of the past with the rare miracle of love for books that readers never forget.”

      —Miranda Jarrett

      “A rainy evening. A cup of hot chocolate. A stack of Harlequin Historicals. Absolute bliss! Happy 10th Anniversary and continued success.”

      “Happy birthday, Harlequin Historicals! I’m proud to have been a part of your ten years of exciting historical romance.”

      —Elaine Barbieri

      “Harlequin Historical novels are charming or disarming with dashes and clashes. These past times are fast times, the gems of romances!”

      To Al, my own rogue-hearted adventurer. Who could have imagined that our honeymoon in Hong Kong twenty-nine years ago would have been the start of something so wonderful?

      “A damned unusual missionary’s daughter,”

      Jamie muttered, as much to himself as to her.

      

      “Well, yes,” Sarah answered, her smile fading at his uncivil tone. “I suppose I am or I wouldn’t be here, would I?”

      

      “No, you wouldn’t.”

      

      Tired of word games, Jamie decided it was time to rid himself of this audacious female. “I assume your presence has something to do with the notes you sent me, and not any desire to learn the intricacies of the Fluttering Butterfly.”

      

      “The fluttering…?”

      

      With a mocking grin, he gestured to one of the painted panels decorating the bed.

      

      A wave of color washed up her neck. Lifting her chin, she glared at him.
