Gemstones
by Janet Lane Walters

When Nicola Gordon and her younger sisters travel from India to England, she goes to a marriage she doesn't want.

Drew Barlow has no desire for marriage, but his distant cousin and Nicola's grandfather, ran the estates into debt. Drew agrees to the marriage for the money and to please the Dowager, Nicola's grandmother, but he has no trust in women, or in love.

But when the two meet, they clash and come together, igniting a blazing attraction they neither one can resist.

Janet Lane Walters' Bio

Janet Lane Walters lives in the scenic Hudson Valley with her husband of many years. She is the mother of four and the grandmother of four. Writing is her obsession. From the time she began to read at the age of four, she's been intrigued by story-telling. In third grade, she re-wrote the ending to Anna Karenina. During her training as a nurse, she wrote case studies that contained the elements of fiction. An eclectic reader, she's carried her reading habits into her writing career. Her books include mysteries, romances (sweet and sensual), historical and contemporary, fantasies and suspense. She's also published short stories, non-fiction and poetry. There's nothing she enjoys more than asking "what if" and finding what happens to the people she creates.
