A classic romance from bestselling author Cathy Maxwell. The reckless and impoverished heiress Phadra Abbott swore that no amount of scandal would stop her from finding her spendthrift explorer father. Not even her forbiddingly handsome guardian Grant Morgan could stand in the way! From the moment he tried to arrange Miss Abbott's future, he found his well-ordered life going disastrously awry. And to their mutual dismay, they both discovered that neither could resist a worthy adversary, nor quell the dreams of passion that were suddenly brought to life in each other's arms.
