Holly's Hope — Joan Elliott Pickart

Holly Chambers was beautiful... but she appeared to be dead! Justin Hope was shocked at the sight of bodies lying everywhere. What disaster had befallen the pretty Wisconsin town, and how could he help the lovely woman lying on the grass before him? When mouth-to-mouth resuscitation turned into a kiss full of yearning and heat, Justin felt his spirits soar. The ruggedly handsome business tycoon had arrived in search of his young sister, but now he had another reason to stay awhile. Holly thrilled to the sensual current that crackled between them, returning Justin's ardor with abandon, but their romantic idyll seemed doomed. He called the world home, while she'd chosen a safe; quiet life in the town where shed grown up. Holly was willing to settle for memories, afraid her city slicker would never stay with a farmer's daughter. Was love powerful enough to change a man's dreams and transform a woman who'd stopped believing in happily ever after?
