The Basque Swallow

by Leigh Daniels

Romance -- or ruse? Joanna Bellamy was tickled pink to be chaperoning a bevy of nervous, excited mail-order brides to the small European country of Andorra. The appearance on shipboard of a sinister stranger was the society matron's first inkling that there was more to the trip than met the eye. Lucien Soileau claimed to be an art dealer, but business wasn't the reason the tall Frenchman with the hooded eyes pursued the brides to the rugged Andorran countryside. An ocean away from family and friends, Joanna was caught in a viper's nest of danger and deception--and she wasn't sure she could even trust her heart.
