Phoenix rising

by Frances Patton Statham

Phoenix Rising is Atlanta, the Phoenix City that is reborn from its own destruction, the enthralling story of a silver-haired beauty and the exotic stranger who loves her... Kenna Chalmers, a georgeous debutante, becomes an army nurse with one thought in mind -- to search for her brother, who was shot down over France. But before she can leave Atlanta, many dangers and surprises await her. The terror of the chase as a hunted German officer tries to kill her... the passion of a gypsy who steals her love in a deserted cabin... the secret engagement to an aristocratic officer. Through it all, Kenna struggles to deny the irresistible passion of Irish Firzpatrick, the man determined to make her his own.
