Beauty Meets Beast in San Francisco Accepting employment as a governess after hard times hit her family, medieval scholar Rosalind Hawkins is surprised when she learns that her mysterious employer has no children, no wife, and she is not to meet with him face to face.

A requirement for the job was skill in translating medieval French, and she now understands the reason for that requirement, and assumes her unseen employer's interest in the descriptions of medieval spells and sorcery is that of an eccentric antiquary.

He has a terrible secret and is desperately searching for something that can reverse the effects of the misfired spell which created his predicament.

Stunning and couldn't put it down
The ' Fire Rose' is absolutely one of Mercedes best books, and I was enthralled throughout, with the storyline keeping my attention through to the end. Mercedes Lackeys books are standout books written from the heart, and that's how I read them. I am so captured by the heartfelt writing I am going to purchase her whole current collection, absolute bliss. Thanks Mercedes you have captured a fan in New Zealand.
