A battle-scarred veteran of love and war, Captain Rhio of the Queen’s Guard has never met a woman as fierce, as fascinating, as the foreign slave dancer, Amae. Her Dance of the Battle Maiden is so scandalous the captain has to quell a riot at Her Majesty’s very proper reception for the Trinitarian ambassador. Fortunately, he’s accustomed to taking command.
Everything male in Rhio is aroused and challenged by Amae’s untamed spirit. Despite his suspicions about her, he can’t resist taking a single night to lose himself in her dark wild beauty. The dancer has the heart of a warrior and a nefarious purpose she won’t disclose. She’s up to her pretty little neck in political intrigue, treachery and murder, but for some stupid reason, Rhio can’t make himself walk away. Amae might just get him killed before they’re through, but gods, what a glorious way to go!
Includes a preview of The Dark Rose
Rhio’s Dancer previously appeared in Laced with Desire

Denise grew up, as little girls do, but the magic of story still dazzles and enthralls her. On the good days, she likes to think of herself as Scheherezade’s sister. On the bad days – not so much.She remains an incurable romantic who loves happy endings, heart-pounding adventure and the eventual triumph of good over evil. All hail the guys in the white hats – unless the ones wearing black are more…um…interesting?Denise lives in a comfortable, messy old house in the Australian suburbs. She’s small, noisy and tends to wave her hands around a lot, which can be unfortunate if the tale she’s telling happens to have explosions in it.
