Description
Renny Knight had a rogue's smile that could melt the socks off any woman -- why then did Jacqueline Train deny they were husband and wife? Two years earlier they'd made a deal: she'd wed the handsome roamer so he could claim his inheritance, and he'd promised to father her child, a baby she could raise on her own. But Renny had too much love to give, and Jacquie wasn't ready to accept it. So she'd let him out of the pact -- while carrying the child Renny never knew existed -- unable to reach out for the man she'd grown to love but couldn't have. Now Renny had returned to claim her, filling her with panic...and sudden hope. He couldn't know she'd lost the child, wouldn't understand how deeply she'd been hurt -- but was she strong enough to refuse him what she'd wanted for so long? Renny tried to kiss away her doubts, to remind his enchantress of the magic they'd woven before. But something in Jacquie rejected love, wouldn't trust his vows that he'd never leave her again. Could her wild outlaw rover open the door to her heart, forever?
