The legendary island nation of Akora endows its descendants with rare gifts. Now one compassionate young woman must discover her own extraordinary power--and her heart’s desire--by facing the greatest challenge of her life....
Fountain of Fire
Daughter of a renowned Akoran warrior and an English-born beauty, Clio is content with her lot as a pretty, warmhearted girl among a family of compelling and exquisitely attractive people. Yet it is precisely her immensely soothing nature that is to bring her unexpected power--and passion. For a distressed young Queen Victoria has requested that Clio become her lady-in-waiting. During a time of political unrest, it is a position of inherent danger. But Clio is determined to be of service....Charged with safeguarding the queen from a suspected assassination plot, William, earl of Holyhood, is delighted to have the company of Clio. Not only is her sweetness a balm to the soul, but she is also, curiously, an Akoran princess. Long fascinated by the tantalizing island, William soon finds his interest superseded by an enchantment with Clio herself. Surprised by their deep mutual attraction, the couple have only to agree on how best to protect the queen--and themselves--from those who would steal their futures. But it is a task more easily said than done, and one that may hold the fate of an empire--and a blossoming love--in the balance.

By Always looking for a good book... - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I've read each of Litton's books as it hits the bookstores and I eagerly await any new work.
This story won't disappoint any of her fans and it will definately hook any new readers. Clio (daughter of two of Litton's best characters Atreus and Brianna) travels to England with her parents for the coronation of Victoria, the new Queen. From a family of women who have supernatural 'gifts' that come forward during times of peril, Clio has always been simply normal. But she starts to hallucinate about the past while at the estate of William, our hero. Of course they fall in love, but they also work together to find those behind the plot to kill the Queen.
The sex scenes were rather gratuitous but overall this was a great book to read. I loved the new characters and it was great to see the new additions to the family trees.
This was the third book in this trilogy and was also an excellent read. You really need to read all three books. She also has written books about the parents of these characters and how her legenday kingdomof Ankora came to be. I plan to read all of them.

I read this years ago in paperback. I've slowly been replacing my favorites on the Kindle. It's nice to re-read those books that I got rid of years ago at yard sales!
