Ladylight — Victoria Pade

DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER...
Addie Kimball's done it...stolen back the 32-carat diamond that's rightfully hers. Fifty years ago, Ryan Fletcher's grandfather swindled her family out of the stone, and no arrogant aristocrat, however handsome; will keep her from using it to save her impoverished mining town now. Not even if it takes a forty-gauge shotgun to stop him! But Addie fails to reckon with Ryan's determination to retrieve his inheritance.

As he embarks on a teasing, maddening cat-and-mouse game in search of the elusive stone, she fights the treacherous yearnings aroused by his all-too-virile presence. Soon, against their wills and despite all reason, they're swept away by a passion that knows no bounds, by a love more splendid than any gem on earth.
