Summary

Kit Newbury, the spoilt and unhappy daughter of a rich financier, invites her friend Taryna home for the holidays. She convinces Taryna to pose as a wealthy Canadian heiress, to appease her snobbish stepmother. But as the innocent masquerade thrusts them into a glittering world of fabulous wealth, Tarnya soon realises their deception could quickly unravel. As mysterious undercurrents begin to surface within the world of wealth and amusement, Taryna is drawn not just into a secret mission by the unscrupulous financier, but into the arms of the handsome Michael. Is this the true lights of love or does Micheal really love the money she pretends she has? What Taryna discovers, how she saves her friend and what happens to her fragile and untried heart are all revealed in this passionate story of friendship, truth and love.

    The Adventurer is a Barbara Cartland novel like no other. Set before, during and after World War One, this is not the story of a King, a Lord or a dashing battlefield hero: Frank Swinton is quite the opposite. He is an adventurer: a man determined to raise himself above the drudgery of a
     
    nine-to-five job. Tall, dark and attractive, if not exactly handsome, he uses his charms to swindle lonely ladies out of their money. That is until he’s trapped by his own weakness and greed in a loveless marriage–and hates himself as much as his obsessive and embittered bride. Eventually he manages to unshackle himself, flee overseas and find the courage to fight for his country–but will he ever escape and rediscover his long-lost soul and the love his greed allowed him to leave behind? All is told in this moving story about a man’s search for redemption and that in the end, love is enough.
