The Secret Rose (Rose Trilogy #3)

Hers Was The Fabulous Legacy And The Secret Of The Rose
Aisleen Fitzgerald looked up into the rugged, handsome face above her and trembled with a special knowledge. Born with the mark of the rose and its gift of second sight, she had fled from her troubled past in Ireland to Australia's vast wilds, seeking a new life and vowing never to kneel before any man. But now, as her bonnet tumbled from her brilliant copper hair, the sunlight blazed—or was it another fire — from this stranger's deep blue eyes.

He was Thomas Gibson, a work-hardened Irish rancher looking for a bride, a tough frontiersman moved by this petal-soft, "book-learned" woman so different from the rest. In that moment, her fate was sealed. For she was to be joined in a marriage as tempestuous as the untamed outback...and one that would fulfill the passionate promise of the Rose.
