New York Times bestselling author Josie Litton captivated readers with tales of the passionate--sometimes forbidden--unions between the fiery men and women of the island nation of Akora and those of mighty England. Now the next generation of lovers longs to follow suit--but new conflicts may prevent history from repeating itself.... Fountain of Dreams Lovely, loyal, and strong-willed as her parents before her, Amelia Darcourt is nonetheless entirely unprepared for her reaction to her family’s compelling American visitor. The handsome young man is a match not only for her wits but for her heart. Yet no sooner does Amelia discover the attraction is mutual than she learns of a secret that may destroy her happiness.

But in spirited Amelia Darcourt he has found so much more. Their burgeoning passion has him caught between duty and desire. Loath to leave her side, Niels resolves to win her heart upon his return. But just as the two are destined to be together, they are destined to face the challenges that threaten to keep them apart. Only then will they be free to seal their love.… (more)

The next three books in the series follow the eldest children of those we met earlier. Amelia, daughter of Alex and Johanna, despairs of finding a man who is strong, intelligent and willing to accept her as an equal. When she is kidnapped one night, and escapes on her own, she is assisted in her escape by American Neils Wolfson, called "the Wolf". Neils is in England investigating a very deadly incident in an American harbor, in which he suspects Amelia's cousin Andreas had a part. He tries to deny his feelings for Amelia due to his distrust of her family, but really can't help himself.
This was not my favorite in the series, considering there's not much Akora in it, but it was still good. Not a fan of Neils' deception either. ( )
