Daughter of the Dawn — Christine Flynn

A STRANGER AT THE DOOR

Colonel Caid Mattock was a man alone, and that was exactly the way he wanted it. There was no room in his life for any woman -- and that went double for the fragile, exotic beauty who had just landed on his doorstep, trailing a world of trouble behind her. But something about her just wouldn't let him turn her away....

Mia Tu had come halfway around the world in search of the home she had never known, but all she had found was danger and deepening mystery. She had no one to turn to but a solitary man who clearly wanted no part of her, but whose help she desperately needed.
