Feeling unaccountably bereft at the thought of his abandonment, Liyah nevertheless nodded. ‘I under-stand.’

‘Good. It is unfortunate you will not be able to work out your notice, but it is fortuitous that you already made your plans to leave.’

‘What? Why won’t I work out my notice?’

‘I’ve told you, we must leave for Zeena Sahra immediately.’

‘You said you had to leave.’

He gave her a look that said she wasn’t following him. ‘Naturally you must come with me.’

Award-winning and bestselling author LUCY MONROE sold her first book in September 2002 to Mills & Boon. That book represented a dream that had been burning in her heart for years—the dream to share her stories with readers who love romance as much as she does. Since then she has sold more than thirty books to three publishers and hit national bestseller lists in the US and England, but what has touched her most deeply since selling that first book are the reader letters she receives. Her most important goal with every book is to touch a reader's heart and, when she hears she's done that, it makes every night spent writing into the wee hours of the morning worth it.

She started reading Mills & Boon

books when she was very young and discovered a heroic type of man between the covers of those books … an honourable man, capable of faithfulness and sacrifice for the people he loves. Now married to what she terms her ‘alpha male at the end of a book,’ Lucy believes there is a lot more reality to the fantasy stories she writes than most people give credit for. She believes in happy endings that are really marvellous beginnings and that's why she writes them. She hopes her books help readers to believe a little, too … just as romance did for her so many years ago.

She really does love to hear from readers and responds to every e-mail. You can reach her by e-mailing lucymonroe@lucymonroe.com (mailto:lucymonroe@lucymonroe.com).

For my editor, Suzanne Clarke. It's always a little bit terrifying, changing editors, but you've made it a really lovely experience and I'm thrilled how well our creative visions mesh. I'm also delighted to find we are kindred spirits in other areas. I feel as if we're a destined team. Thank you!
