Love's Secret Fire — Deborah Satinwood

She was his secret passion. War-weary and disillusioned, Forrest York returned home to the provincial town that had once so cruelly shunned him. But he couldn't forget the bewitching, golden-haired beauty who'd dared to befriend him when no one else would, and whose innocent desire had captured his love-starved heart forever. Now the respectable Lady Thorpe, his elusive Lisbet, was even more beyond his reach. Until her forbidden caress rekindled the fires of their long-lost passion, and left him burning to make her his once more with all the raging hunger that still blazed in both their souls!

He was her forbidden love. How could she ever forget the man who'd awakened her deepest desires? But their searing nights of passionate loving had ended in disgrace when Lisbet's tyrannical father had uncovered their clandestine affair. Wild with fury, he'd banished Forrest from their estate and forced Lisbet into exile abroad. But now her long-ago lover was back - more mysterious and devilishly seductive than ever. This time, Lisbet vowed that nothing would keep them apart, not even the secret she harbored in her soul. And, as desires reignited in Forrest's sensual embrace, she knew she would never deny him anything again, for she was forever his, forever a captive of Love's Secret Fire.
