The Storm — Jacquelyn Aeby

When young editor Alison Monroe made an appointment with author Jonathan Warwick at his country estate, she little suspected that a savage winter storm would isolate her in this remote place, while a storm of conflict raged within her. Alison had come to obtain Warwick's new book for her firm, and especially for her attractive, hard-driving boss, Paul Danvers. But she found it increasingly hard to resist the charms of the writer's handsome nephew, Dan Warwick, who told her how many people would be hurt by the publication of this explosive manuscript.

Alison had worked hard to reach the brink of success in her career -- and now she was being asked to throw it all away by a young man who was infuriatingly sure of his power over her: Alison's self-confidence was wavering, and she found that Paul Danvers' arrival only brought more trouble, for he made no effort to hide his disappointment in her. As a blizzard howled outside, and tension grew inside the house, Alison was caught in the crosswinds of old loyalties and uncertain love, buffeted by chilling doubts, and driven toward the most fateful choice of her young life.
