In the Shadow of the Dragonfly — M. Jean Pike

From above the shadows . light. Orphaned and impoverished, Gray Baldwin is a lost soul in search of a home, a life and most of all-love. Kicked from foster home to foster home, at last a restored motorcycle and the onset of adulthood give him the means to leave behind all the old threats, struggles and losses that haunt him. When he accepts a job at Hanwell Construction, life's promising new start is both his hope and his torment. The spoiled daughter of a well-to-do business owner, pretty Hope Hanwell has a past to reconcile and a few tragic secrets of her own. She wants for nothing-and everything, pushing love as far away as she can until love pushes back. When Gray and Hope meet, theirs is a story of heartbreak, redemption and fate at its most devastating. M. Jean Pike is an amazing author. Her stories are magical, emotional and romantic. I could read them over and over. Simply Romance Reviews
