Bestselling author Nan Ryan's sensual new novel burns a breathless trail of passion and betrayal through the Civil War South . . .

Susanna LeGrande lost her fiance, her brother and her beloved home to the Union army. But her grief only strengthened her resolve to spy for the Confederacy. The once-pampered Southern belle charmed her way through Washington society, falling brazenly into the arms of Rear Admiral Mitchell B.Longley, a commanding Union sailor. She seduced, used . . . and loved the powerful man.

In the heat of ecstasy, Susanna forgot Mitch was her enemy -- she surrendered her body and her heart. But her ruthless betrayal in the name of the South would cost Mitch everything -- his command, his men and very nearly his life. She left a shattered, soulless man in her wake.

And now Susanna's dearest love, her dearest enemy, will show her that the sweet kiss of vengeance is a game he, too can paly . . .
