Queen's Gambit

Review With a short story length, every word has to count and you make them do so beautifully. The book packs a lot of emotion - laughter, joy, grief, longing...and ultimately a love true enough to be willing to sacrifice all --Jayne, Dear Author "unexpectedly poignant and compelling." --Mrs. Giggles "another winner from a very talented author." 5 Hearts --Valerie, Love Romances and More Product Description The Grand Master of her body—and her fate. Ever since a jealous wife cursed her, Christi Blythe has lived seven hundreds years of a half life, trapped by day in the black queen of a chess set. She lives only between the hours of dusk and dawn, waiting for the one true love who is willing to sacrifice a vital game of chess to break the curse. Now, years after she has given up hope, her remote Highland hotel is hosting a chess match between two high-profile Grand Masters of the game. One of them is the brilliant but erratic Russian, Andrei Zuvaran. Andrei suspects there is something different about the luscious barmaid and her chess set. One hot night with her—and one shocking dawn—confirms it. But he canвЂTMt afford to lose this match. Not even to free her. HeвЂTMs got more riding on it than money, more than his heart. His next move could cost a life. This book has been previously published and has been revised from its original release. Warning: This story includes adultery, enchantment and hot, sexy Russians, and defies the widely-held belief that chess is for geeks.
