The Desert Flower
At seventeen, fiery Juliet Cameron fell passionately in love and married the perfect companion for the adventurous life she wanted to lead. Lord Ross Carlisle is handsome, dashing, and as eager to explore the world as she is. But social constraints and fear of an all consuming love that threatens to engulf her independent spirit send Juliet fleeing to the distant land where she was raised as a diplomat's child.
Now, a dozen years later, a gentleman's promise sends Lord Ross on a dangerous rescue mission to Central Asia—and to a shocking reunion with his long estranged wife. Warily they join forces to cross the merciless desert to Bokhara, where Juliet's army officer brother has been imprisoned. The fierce attraction that drew them together so many years before has never died. But if they succumb to passion, can either of them survive if they cannot heal their broken marriage?

Silk 2
2By suzieqaaaaa I have read many Maryjo Putney books and enjoyed everyone. Unfortunately, at 7000 pages on my phone, it took over 4000 pages to finally make a point. So many different cultures and customs and lands conflicted with each other, and it seemed like there was no one story. The first book in the series was great, and even though I am an avid reader, this book was the hardest thing I’ve ever tried to followGreat read!
5By romvictReally great story…far above other romance novels I’ve read.My favorite.
5By j21969In this series I think this one is my favorite. The ups and downs. The tears I cried and the laughter. I hope you enjoy the road to happily ever after as much as I did. Read the whole series though in order it’s worth it.Enchanting!
5By Grandma SnailI enjoyed SILK AND SHADOWS, and SILK AND SECRETS even more! Adventure, romance, and passion on every level. Just enough historical reference to make it believable. Wonderful!
