My Beautiful Enemy

"Chinese heroine Catherine Blade and English hero Leighton Atwood, two star-crossed lovers who originally met in disguise and were torn apart by differing political loyalties, run into each other years later in London. She is chasing a powerful enemy, and he is engaged to be married — but once again they find their personal and political goals muddled and their mutual attraction irresistible. Romance star Thomas effortlessly blends historical romance essentials with breathtaking elements of mystical martial arts heroism and sets the dual timelines — 1883 and 1891 — in imperial China and Victorian London. A unique, fascinating, culturally textured romance."
