CHILD OF LOVE
Long years before, on a rain-darkened evening, she was born - and abandoned. Her mother, alluring, aristocratic, and spirited, had dared to love a man without rank or title, and from their reckless desires, Belinda Lemaitre was born - a child never told of her heritage, and brought up in France.

WOMAN OF PASSION
Then, in the dizzying events of chance and revelation, she discovered her past and secretly came into the employ of her now invalid mother. One moment, embittered rage ruled Belinda; the next, tenderness and mercy brought her near the mother she had never known.

PAWN OF DESTINY
Suddenly, as Belinda was readying to reveal her true identity, she was entrapped in a terrifying web of masquerade, lust, and murderous longing, as a beautiful imposter sought to take her place, a handsome gentleman courted her love, and a killer waited... until they were alone.
