Cleopatra’s Necklace by Susan Vaughan

A stolen necklace… a woman in danger… A dangerous quest…

Former Delta officer and now DSF boss Thomas Devlin is desperate to recover the legendary Cleopatra’s necklace from smugglers and restore his company’s reputation. When the smugglers pursue his old flame, he jets to her aid.
Impetuous artist Cleo Chandler’s involvement with the forger who copied the necklace sends her on the run. When Thomas finds her in Europe, Cleo knows he will protect her but worries this take-charge man will crush her love again. On his dangerous quest for the necklace, Thomas runs into more trouble than he can handle in the arms of this woman he can’t forget.
From Venice to the U.S., as they race against time, they learn that something greater is at stake than recovering the precious antiquity. As the peril escalates, so does the risk to their hearts.
