Emilie (The Cajun Series, #1) / The Cajun Series (ePub)

The one man she feared was the one who could steal her heart.

Thirteen years after her family was torn apart, Emilie Gallant journeys through untamed Louisiana in search of her father. But the dangers of the bayou are nothing compared to the fierce passion of Lorenz Dugas, her longtime companion.

But Lorenz is equally determined to win Emilie's heart and his passion will prove that their love cannot be denied.

As they make their way across the untamed Louisiana wilderness, hoping to reunite the Gallant family, Emilie learns that love has a way of healing all wounds - even in the most unusual places.

"Pick up a copy of Emilie for your reading pleasure, and take a journey into the historical Acadian (Cajun) country of Louisiana for an educational, romantic read."
-Carol Carter, Romance Reviews Today

"The beauty of Ms. Claire's tale is in the message that love makes one a stronger and better person. She leaves just enough hints to keep readers eagerly anticipating the next two sisters' tales. As a history buff, I enjoyed learning about the Acadian (Cajun) culture, as well as the story's characters."
-Evelyn Feiner, Romantic Times magazine

"I'm saving a spot for Cherie Claire on my keepershelf!"
