THE TREASURE KEEPER

Book ID/图书代码： 06830012B57482

English Summary/英文概要： She is a young drákon of untried powers. He is the powerful second son of the Alpha male from their clan of shapeshifting, supersensual beings. And what she is about to attempt will violate every taboo and break every law that bind the drákon together—and just may save them from destruction.
A mere seamstress’s daughter, Zoe Cyprienne Lane isn’t even in the same league as Lord Rhys Langford. Nothing could be more shocking than the notion that she’d set out to find her childhood friend and first true love. But when news arrives in the Carpathian Mountains of Transylvania that Rhys is being held captive, that’s just what she does. Guided by her own hidden Gifts and her psychic link to Rhys—his presence and touch as electric as if he were beside her in the flesh—Zoe is his last lifeline to a world and a passion he thought he’d never regain. Only reunited, hunter and huntress, can they save the drákon from those who would destroy them all.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 她是一位年輕的德庫拉家族涉世未深的女子。他是來自變形一族中最具法力的Alpha家族中的次子。她要是打算嘗試違反每個禁忌，打破與德庫拉綁定的每一條法令 — 或許可以救他們免於毀滅。
僅僅是一位裁縫的女兒， Zoe Cyprienne Lane甚至和Rhys Langford沒有絲毫交集。沒有什麼能比她將著手去尋找童年朋友和第一次真愛的想法更令人震驚的。但當她用心術將Rhys被俘的消息，傳到特蘭西瓦尼亞喀爾巴阡山脈時。她運用自己隱秘的天賦和心念聯繫上了Rhys— — 他的存在和觸摸讓Zoe如同身臨其境 — — Zoe 是他通向世界和他重獲激情的最後一根救命稻草。只有重聚，獵人，和女獵手，才能挽救德庫拉免遭滅頂之災。(Sandy)

This fantasy of manners, set in the world of 2007’s The Dream Thief, wears a layer of Regency romance like a corset that doesn’t quite fit. The love triangle builds quickly between three drákon, magic-users hiding in plain sight in 1766 England: Zoe, who hides her gifts to keep other drákon from using her as a pawn; Hayden, her fiancé, sent to investigate a rumored group of European magicians; and Lord Rhys, Zoe’s childhood sweetheart turned insufferable womanizer. When Hayden’s letters cease and Rhys is captured, Zoe sets off to the rescue. Since drákon are essentially monogamous and classless, the charming upper-class rake motif falls flat, but having the heroine unapologetically save the hero is a welcome move, and Abé neatly evokes the adolescent frustration of fending off overcautious elders and feeling distant from one’s society.

About the Author/作者介绍： 莎納•亞伯生於德克薩斯州。在科羅拉多州渡過了自己的童年時光，曾作為一個外國交換生，在墨西哥有過短暫的逗留，十七歲時，在日本從事模特生涯。幼年時期，亞伯就開始著手寫作，在當拍攝模的空閒時間裏，完成了被她稱之為“有史以來最愚蠢的浪漫小說”的創作。她的寫作風格主要側重於浪漫題材，而這些也是她最為喜歡閱讀的小說。她隨後在洛杉磯上了大學，拿到了戲劇學位。
她的第二部小說，同樣也是當代浪漫類型，並在一個寫作比賽中位列第三名。於是她把自己的作品寄給了幾家可能具有市場前瞻性的代理社，這些代理商多數回覆她的問題大多為“看上去不錯 — 不過你的作品的主線是什麼呢？”在這些建議下，亞伯不得對原先的寫作套路進行修改，她最終覺得集中精力於歷史浪漫愛情題材。為了嘗試此類題材，新婚不久的亞伯選擇把自己醞釀的浪漫中世紀愛情故事告訴丈夫。這份名為《 A Rose in Winter》手稿被Bantam出版社購買出版。
亞伯的許多小說背景都設置於中世紀時期。她之所以選擇這一時期是因為那是一段“光明與黑暗的分水嶺時期…中世紀時期的皇家的宏偉，威嚴和騎士精神都給她的創作帶來了無窮的創作靈感 — 但也不得不承認，那也是人類歷史上最為黑暗的一段時期。”
亞伯獲得了《浪漫時代雜誌》的職業成就獎，她還六次被提名為《浪漫時代雜誌》評審獎，兩次獲勝。

Shana Abé is the author of Queen of Dragons, The Dream Thief, and The Smoke Thief. She lives in Denver, Colorado.
