That Certain Yearning — Claudia Jameson

That was very true. Diane's heart had gone out to vulnerable young Kirsty, but warning bells had sounded in her head when she met Kirsty's uncle, Nik Channing.

Yet clearly Kirsty needed Diane's support. She couldn't let the girl down now -- even if that meant facing up to her feelings...and to Nik.

Hero: Nik Channing
Heroine: Diane West
