Description
Courage, dreamy and a passionate will to survive had gotten singer Esther Brite out of the small town where everyone hated her and her mother--and she'd never looked back. But when a tragic accident shattered her new life, Esther had nowhere else to go... and no idea what she hoped to find back there. Dr. Dan Jacobey understood about sanctuary--it was what he'd sought in the house of her childhood... and what he'd discovered in her hidden girlhood diary. Before they met he'd come a to know Esther more intimately than anyone, and when she collapsed from fever on her arrival, he yearned to protect her, possess her, be a part of the woman he'd come to love through her words. The desire in his voice, the mesmerizing need in his eyes, made Esther tremble. She didn't believe in happily ever after, but Dan made her feel again, want what she couldn't have. His love branded her, bound her to him, but she had to face the past alone. Once Dan knew all her secrets...how could he promise tomorrow?
