Romance of the Turquoise Cat

After years of living in an orphanage, Joy Standish's job at the magnificent summer home of Dr. Barrett Montgomery surpassed any of her dreams. Despite the fact that Dr. Montgomery was a mysteriously irascible old man, assisting him with his ancient archaeological artifacts gave her a sense of belonging she never had before.

Then one day everything changed. A handsome, soft-spoken stranger appeared, asking questions about the doctor that she could not answer. Suddenly she found herself falling into a romance, with a man she did not understand...and falling under the spell of an exotic legend she dared not defy.
