Darling Jasmine
by Bertrice Small

She was headstrong, fearless, and beautiful. She was just like her grandmother, the legendary Skye O'Malley.

Jasmine had been forced into marriage twice. Rebelling at King James' decree that she wed Jemmie Leslie, fifth earl of Glenkirk, she fled to France with her children. But her youngest, the illegitimate offspring of Jasmine's lover, Prince Henry Stuart, is also the king's only grandson. Now the man coming after her and her little boy is the man she both fears and desires...

Jemmie Leslie has come to France to possess Jasmine—by force if necessary. Though they shared a night of unforgettable passion, her rejection of their betrothal stunned and maddened him. Yet once he sees her again, Jemmie vows to win the elusive Jasmine back...and take her beyond ecstasy.
