Meet Me in Monte Carlo

Book excerpt: The boulevards of Paris, Cannes, Monte Carlo - perhaps in their glamour Sylvia could forget Johnny... forget that he no longer wanted to marry her. But Sylvia didn't know when she left London that she was about to be plunged into a ring of jewel thieves, that handsome, romantic Henri was a criminal mastermind, and that Johnny would turn up in Dijon with Lucille, who was very stunning and very French. At the centre of the intrigue were stolen emeralds worth half a million dollars. And when those emeralds surfaced in her handbag, Sylvia began the most dangerous adventure of her life - an adventure that would perish all her doubts about Johnny's love. A captivating love story from the 100-million-copy bestselling Queen of Romance, first published in 1954, and available now for the first time in eBook.
