Sweet Love, Survive — Susan Johnson

Kitty Radachek played to perfection her role as the demure wife of a powerful army commander she could never love ... until a stolen kiss from a daring cavalry captain awoke in the countess a flaring passion more devastating than the fires of war that raged around them. Captain Apollo Kuzan was a gloriously handsome prince who'd triumphed on the battlefields -- and in bedrooms -- all across Russia. He knew Kitty had no business being in his arms, yet beneath her cool exterior lay a woman of fierce sensuality he couldn't resist. And in the midst of a nation's upheaval, their reckless liaison would hold two hearts captive -- as the hungry flames of passion threatened to burn out of control....

Hero: Captain Apollo Kuzan
