Lovers and Strangers — Diane Chamberlain

SHE HAD NO ROOM IN HER HEART FOR FORGIVENESS. BUT WHAT ABOUT LOVE?

Once Shawn and David Ryder were the perfect couple -- best friends and insatiable lovers. But that was before their little girl died. Now they are strangers, driven apart by unrelenting grief and devastating feelings of blame and guilt.

While waiting for the right moment to tell David that their life together is over, Shawn reluctantly lets him tag along when her work as a primatologist takes her to Peru. Together amid the steamy jungle's magnificent splendor -- and later its terrifying danger -- the two are forced to confront painful truths and bitter betrayals that, one way or another, will seal their fate forever.
