Golden Fever — Parley J. Cooper

HER HEART WAS PROMISED...

Paulette Faviere knew one desire: to rejoin her love. Dester Granville. Raised like brother and sister on his parents' sprawling Louisiana plantation, Dester had gone to California to seek his fortune in the gold fields and Paulette was soon to follow.

HER SOUL WAS PLEDGED...

But fate had other things in store for her. Shipwrecked and stranded in Panama, she was forced to accept the patronage of the notorious gambler Jeremiah Walker. He secured her passage to California, but his price was high -- first her bed and then her love were his prizes.

TWO MEN OWNED HER FLESH...

From the blazing lights of San Francisco to the dark canyons of the shacktown gold camps, she followed the two men who were her destiny. She cherished them both until the night she was forced to choose between man she had grown up loving and the man she had grown to love.
