Night Fire
ONLY HIS BURNING LOVE COULD SAVE HER
Trapped into a loveless marriage, Arielle Leslie knew a life of shame and degradation. Even after the death of her brutal husband, she was unable to free herself from the shackles of humiliation. Only Burke Drummond's love could save her... if she let it. But as his passion blazed, his patience wore thin... and Arielle risked a future as terrifying as her past...
Arielle Leslie is a sixteen-year-old forced to wed Paisley Cochran, a sadistic old man who abuses her. When he dies, Ariel believes herself to finally be free. But she's not. Burke Drummond, Earl of Ravensworth, is a young man she worshiped three years before. He has recently returned from the war, and he wants her.
HE SAW HER. SHE WAS RIDING A CHESTNUT MARE AND SHE WAS LAUGHING.
He waited for her to notice him. When she did, she waived to him, calling out in her pure sweet voice. 'How do you do? Are you the new earl?' She cantered toward him, coming to a graceful halt. She looked down at him and smiled, extending a gloved hand. 'I am Arielle Leslie, my lord.'
'And I am Burke Drummond.' She dismounted. It was when she was standing in front of him, looking up at him full in the face that he saw that she was beautiful. But it wasn't her beauty that was making him feel so odd. It was something else about her, and he could feel his heart pound in slow, steady strokes, feel something change deep inside himself. He was staring at her but he couldn't help himself. He wanted her.

About Catherine Coulter
Jean Catherine Coulter was born on 26 December 1942 in Cameron County, Texas, USA, where she grew up in a horse ranch. She graduated from the University of Texas and earned a degree at Boston College in early 19th-century European History.
Catherine married Anton Pogany, a medical student, and she took a job as a speech writer for a Wall Street company president. She spent many of her evenings alone, reading romance novels. One night when they were home together, she found herself in the middle of a particularly bad book and threw it across room, asserting that even she could do better. Her husband challenged her to prove herself, and the two spent the weekend plotting out a storyline for a gothic romance. Coulter wrote the novel in the evenings, and when she finish it, she sent it to an editor at Signet. Her novel "The Autumn Countess" was published in 1978. She says that chose a Regency romance for her debut because: "as any published author will tell you, it's best to limit the unknowns in a first book, and not only had I grown up reading Georgette Heyer, but I earned my M.A. degree in 19th century European History.". She became a bestseller novelist, and she earned her reputation writing historical romances, but now also writes contemporary romances.
Catherine lives in Marin County, California with her husband, Anton Pogany, now a physician.
