Omen for Love — Esther Boyd

The native drums throbbed in a sensuous, rhythmic chant, lulling Carol Baxter. She had come to Peru to work as a public-health nurse-and to escape the very memory of love. But here, on the banks of the mighty Amazon River, she worked side by side with Ian Morrison -- doctor, scientist, and strikingly virile young man.

Carol tried to banish her "schoolgirl" reactions -- but even his most casual touch stopped her breath and sent her pulse racing. Not even Juanita -- who claimed Ian, who would stop at nothing to keep her man could sway Carol's heart. Now, in a primitive jungle hut, Ian was so near to her. His closeness was intoxicating. The native drums beat faster. Could she resist their song?
