A Most Dangerous Profession — Karen Hawkins

Mysterious, elusive, unforgettable. The Hurst Amulet continues to lure lovers into peril as New York Times bestselling author Karen Hawkins spins her newest scintillating tale of danger and desire.

AN ENTRANCING THIEF
For beautiful, seductive Moira MacAllister, the stakes have become terrifyingly high. Her daughter has been abducted, and a priceless ancient relic -- an onyx box -- is the ransom. Moira must acquire it at any cost, even if it means confronting the man she tricked into marriage and then left years ago. A man who still doesn't know she has a child ... and that he is the father.

A DASHING RAKEHELL
Robert Hurst, an operative in the King's service, has never forgiven the mysterious, beautiful spy who once seduced him into marriage and then disappeared without a trace. Now, as he pursues the onyx box he needs to save his brother's life, their paths cross again. But Robert isn't sure which he longs for more -- to satisfy his lust for revenge, or to quench his relentless hunger for this bewitching woman.

A PERILOUS MISSION
When Moira reveals to Robert her long-kept secret, he realizes his burning desires must wait as he and Moira race to stop a treacherous foe who is threatening their child, their lives and their second chance at love.
