L’Émeraude des Montclair, Tome 2 : Sortilège et passion

Résumé

Diana mourait d’envie de toucher le collier, mais n’osait s’y résoudre. Une secrète appréhension l’en empêchait.

– Il est magnifique, vivant presque…

– Peu de femmes pourraient porter une telle parure.

Son éclat, la pureté de ses gemmes éclipseraient les plus belles ! remarqua Gregory. A qui appartient cette merveille ?

Lui aussi semblait hypnotisé. La rivière d’émeraudes captait leurs regards, les envoûtait. Ils en oubliaient les ressentiments, les rivalités, la haine qui depuis si longtemps les opposaient, comme i une force mystérieuse, bénéfique, émanait de ces pierres fabuleuses…

Forced to work together despite the rivalry that they have upheld since childhood, Diandra Casey and Greg York struggle with competing family legacies and uncover similar family disputes--and passions--that they mutually share.

Diandra Casey and Gregory York are childhood rivals and long-term adversaries. With both of them vying for the same powerful position at the posh Casey and York department store, the competition between them has only intensified. So they are shocked to find themselves confined -- together! -- for one week in an elegant Boston town house, cataloging and storing a priceless collection of antiques, in an effort to determine who's best for the job.

Now, away from the pressures of corporate life and alone with each other, their feelings suddenly take unexpected twists and turns. Does the old house hold a surprising fate that they cannot resist? Dare they surrender to the pull of its mystery and the lure of a legend that binds their two families together, a legend too powerful and magnificent to understand . . . or deny?
