A Duel of Jewels

A Duel of Jewels is another hardcover by Severn House (UK). As far as I can tell, this title was not published in the US or in paperback. 1993 is the publication date.

Katerina's stepmother has betrothed her to a rich, elderly duke! She runs away to her neighbor, Prince Michael, who is in an argument with another prince over who owns the best crown jewels. He asks Katerina to help him win this wager, and she agrees!

This cover has a bridal appearance with our heroine decked out in diamonds and emeralds. She wears an beautiful pure white gown which sets off the sparkle and color of the gems. The hero is in formal dress and we get a glimpse of an ornate room.

  1. The synopsis made me laugh out loud.

    "Prince Michael, who is in an argument with another prince over who owns the best crown jewels."

    What kind of person has these arguments?
