A Token of Jewels — Diane Cory

Across the tides of revolution, in a radiant new world, she challenged fortune...and her heart!
Amid the glory and opulence of majestic St. Petersburg, beautiful Anna knew there was more to life than the Tsar's glittering balls. But her fiery spirit could not hold back the tempest of war that now ravaged her world.

Exiled from her home, surrounded by treachery, she remained the obsession of two men, deadly enemies caught in the fury of desire. One was the ruthless commander of the secret police, the other a dashing Englishman who would risk everything to possess her.

In England's lush countryside she found a precious refuge...destined not to last. And as she struggled to begin her life once more on America's strange and dazzling shores, she fought to keep aflame the embers of a shattered dream--and an exquisite love.

Sweeping across the turbulent canvas of World War I, through the wealth and grandeur of Europe's most privileged domains, A Token of Jewels vividly recreates an unforgettable time of splendor and chaos...and of one woman torn by hope and desire, driven to forge her own destiny.
