Nancy Lee Badger brings you this 118-page romance set on the eve of Civil War. Dru Little flew away from her home in Scotland to end her lonely existence. Her journey in late 1860 has led her to the modern American city of Charleston, South Carolina. Hiding her true self, she takes over the life of a serving girl in a tavern near the wharves. She has no idea that her life will turn upside down in a dark alley.
Lieutenant Shaw Stenhouse has his own worries. Southern secessionists are talking up a storm in Charleston. His fellow Federal soldiers are suddenly at risk from the community they are here to protect. When he saves a comely lass from drunken sailors, a good deed and a stolen kiss put a smile on his face. Their attraction proves disastrous when Dru spots her former lover, the Black Dragon, working for General Beauregard and the southern troops, who plan to attack Fort Sumter.
Dru fights against the threat of detection, while she fears losing Shaw’s love. What will he do when he finds out that she is a dragon? When Shaw discovers her hiding inside the heavily guarded fortress, thoughts of espionage—and worse—catapult the two lovers into danger. When her former lover threatens Shaw, Dru must decide which is more important: protecting another of her kind, or the human male; the man she has come to love. Amid cannon fire, and the threat of Civil War, love and trust will find a way.
