Product Description

Product Description

He is her sworn enemy.  She is the prize he wants above all.

Diana Sanbourne is faced with an impossible choice: ignore her father's dying wish or seek out the one man who can fulfill it. The one man she despises--Jack Rutherford. Once, she had loved him, only to be betrayed, and she vowed never again to fall under the power of his seductive caress. Now he's a rogue hunter of ancient relics, with the daring and instincts that could lead to the fabled treasure her father asked her to find. Yet even as he joins her on her quest--one that will lead from England's shadowy underworld to a treacherous distant land--Diana must guard not only her life but her heart. For Jack makes it clear he intends to reclaim her for his own. And she is just as determined not to surrender.

In several respects this seemed a very different sort of story for Katherine, yet always her unique style. Her sensual scenes are still some of the best out there.

Full of turns and twists, one can overlook the seemingly superhuman feats performed by Jack and Diana, which could leave you tongue-in-cheek. But the story is so good I didn't care, simply enjoyed the fantasy of Katherine's furtile mind. Besides, it's okay to be larger than life in fiction.

Katherine's stories will turn you wrongside out with passion, and that's the kind of romance we all dream about. -Lee Emory

In 1894 London, Jack Rutherford and Diana Sanbourne, the children of famous archeologists, are to be married in two days. They even make love for the first time in the British Museum. On their wedding day, Jack is arrested for stealing and selling artifacts from the Alexandria Collection. This leads to the death of his father and the bankruptcy of his family. This betrayal to archeology and herself is the one thing that Diana could not forgive him.

Five years pass and Diana's father Stafford is dying just as he has come close to uncovering the legendary Anthony-Cleopatra "Love Treasure", considered a myth by his peers. Before Stafford dies, he sends word to Diana, pleading with her to complete his quest and exonerate his reputation. She knows that she must honor her father's request. However, Diana also knows only one man, the acrimonious archeological rogue Jack can accomplish this. When they meet for the first time since that ill fated wedding day, the sparks fly, but neither trusts the other because they feel let down by their soulmate.

Take Indiana Jones and place him four decades earlier when archeology is still in its infancy and the reader gets a delicious taste of what WRITTEN IN THE STARS is like. The lead protagonists are a delightful duo, who must overcome their suspicions of each other if they are to find true bliss. The secondary players are a delightfully humorous, witty, and dangerous rogue's gallery. Though the romance is top rate, Katherine O'Neal's historical romantic adventure is so good because of the reverent look at nineteenth century archeology, which comes across as exciting as the RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK. Katherine O'Neal is the reigning queen of the romantic adventure,
