After the tragic loss of her child and a messy divorce, Brooke Stevens jumps at the opportunity for a fresh start as a researcher in China. But when she witnesses a murder, she becomes the killer's next target--and only a handsome American stranger stands between her and deadly peril.
Ex-military commando Jackson Taylor isn't ready to settle down and take over the family tea business, but when he learns someone is using the plantation to smuggle Chinese antiquities into America, he vows to investigate. In Shanghai, Jackson stumbles across a murder and is pulled into the danger pursuing fascinating Brooke Stevens.
Together, they uncover an intricate smuggling ring and evade kidnappers, but their growing attraction is impossible to deny. Will myths, dragons, and mystical warnings keep them apart? Or can they make a Shanghai connection?

Do you prefer coffee or tea? Or both?
Both Coffee in the morning and herbal teas at night

Coffee, for sure, Carol.
Coffee! Tea tastes like lightly favored water. tchevrestt(at)yahoo.com
I love coffee with a splash of hazelnut cream to start my day and for mid-day and at night, I go for Blueberry Green Tea. Love it!
I'm off to hop to the next blog. Maybe I'll see you there.
I agree with all of you, as I'm sure Jackson would as well. Coffee in the morning for that great kick-start to the day, but tea, mostly decaf for me, but herbal for sure. Karen Blueberry Green Tea sounds lovely.
Thanks for stopping by, ladies. Good luck on your blog hop. Carol
I love coffee. :-)

I can't bear either coffee or tea. Only things I like to drink hot are cider or hot chocolate.

I prefer tea because I can drink more different types of tea than I can coffee.
I understand not drinking either coffee or tea, Kathryn, but am always stumped when I have company, so I do keep hot cocoa available, and plenty of iced drinks.
I almost agree with you N.S. about the many differnt types of tea, but today, there are a great variety of coffees out there, as well as flavored creams to go with them. So, I'm sure Jackson and Brooke will have many conversations over this as time goes on :)
Thanks for visiting.
Not sure why the comment didn't post, Carol, but PC said:
Tea for me! I love the smell of coffee but not the taste :(

Here's another, Carol. Caroline Clemmons said:
Not sure where to leave my comment, Mackenzie. I'm a tea drinker only. Never learned to like coffee.

Thanks for the help Mac, I love the smell of coffee too! It reminds me of mornings at my grqandmother's house when I'd stay over.

Carol, I've been drinking Starbucks coffee ever since it opened in Seattle (I even got married in the year Starbucks opened). Get this...a friend of mine back in the late 60's was one of the three founders of Starbucks, Zev Siegel. Cool, huh?. My fav. is Sumatra. Tea? Only if I'm sick...delivers the honey :-)
Coffee in the morning, and not flavored. Tea in the afternoon-- Jasmine Green Tea is a good choice.High tea is the best.

Definitely coffee. Can't live without it in the morning and if I do happen to survive I'm usually a grizzly bear the rest of the day. But I do like tea in the afternoon or evening especially when I need a little warmth and comfort.

Rolynn, too funny, the coffee house I refer to in Shanghai Connection that is located next to the ancient tea house is actually a Starbucks--couldn't believe when we were there. It really added to my story.
As for high tea, Mary, I love high tea. We made it a point to make a reservation at the Empress Hotel on Victoria, when we visited Vancouever Island a few years ago-- we weren't disappointed.
Shannon, I can't live without my morning coffee either--it's a great pick-me-up.
Thanks for sharing, ladies, it's been fun. Good luck with the contest. ~ Carol
Decaf or herbal tea!
