Blonde-haired, green-eyed Theresa Philips is having the time of her life learning about her heritage in her African-American Relations class. For years, she has dedicated herself to her son, her company, and her siblings. Now, she wants something for herself. Biracial Theresa finds it surprising her white side might possibly stop her from getting what she wants most: Pierson Brooks. But when her ex-husband comes back into the picture and attempts to kidnap her son, Pierson is the only person she can turn to for help. Pierson Brooks, local mechanic and former Philadelphia policeman, moved to New Orleans for a fresh start.

He finds himself falling for her, and when she needs him most, he eagerly does what he thought he'd never do again: be a policeman.

Book Description
From the internationally acclaimed and bestselling historians William Dalrymple and Anita Anand, the first comprehensive and authoritative history of the Koh-i-Noor diamond, arguably the most celebrated jewel in the world. On March 29, 1849, the ten-year-old leader of the Sikh kingdom of the Punjab was ushered into the magnificent Mirrored Hall at the center of the British fort in Lahore, India. There, in a formal Act of Submission, the frightened but dignified child handed over to the British East India Company swathes of the richest land in India and the single most valuable object in the subcontinent: the celebrated Koh-i-Noor diamond, otherwise known as the Mountain of Light. To celebrate the acquisition, the British East India Company commissioned a history of the diamond woven together from the gossip of the Delhi Bazaars. From that moment forward, the Koh-i-Noor became the most famous and mythological diamond in history, with thousands of people coming to see it at the 1851 Great Exhibition and still more thousands repeating the largely fictitious account of its passage through history. Using original eyewitness accounts and chronicles never before translated into English, Dalrymple and Anand trace the true history of the diamond and disperse the myths and fantastic tales that have long surrounded this awe-inspiring jewel. The resulting history of south and central Asia tells a true tale of greed, conquest, murder, torture, colonialism, and appropriation that shaped a continent and the Koh-i-Noor itself.

The 'Irish Crown Jewels' - the regalia or insignia of the Order of St Patrick, a chivalric order founded by the government in 1783 - mysteriously disappeared on or before 6th July 1907, as King Edward VII was on the point of visiting Ireland to invest a knight of the Order of St Patrick. The task entrusted to the Vice-Regal Commission appointed by the Lord Lieutenant-General and General Governor of Ireland was not to conduct a criminal investigation but to determine whether Sir Arthur Vicars, the Ulster King of Arms (the state heraldic and genealogical officer in charge of the Of ce of Arms in Dublin Castle) had 'exercised due vigilance and proper care' as the custodian of the star and badge. The report of the Vice-Regal Commission and Sir Arthur Vicars' statements to the police are reproduced here in full.
