A Heart's Treasure

TREASURE SOUGHT

Wary of female wiles, however, Xavier was hard pressed not to question the kind words of his charming travelling partner, Genevieve. He had always valued her friendship, and her quiet beauty and gentle ways were a soothing tonic to his battered soul. Yet if he dared to reveal his true feelings, he risked losing the most passionate prize of all...
