ON
CHRISTMAS DAY… the life of Dr. Caroline Stern changed forever. Her husband was
murdered, her baby son kidnapped. When she found the boy again, he was with his
biological father - a man Caroline never intended to meet.
There seems no obvious tie between Jack Briscoe and the violence of sixteen months prior, but Caroline just wants her son back - something Jack seems unwilling to grant. He wants the boy, too, and when a wily old country judge demands the two of them work out a shared custody arrangement, Caroline finds herself in Texas Hill Country for longer than expected.
Then she learns Jack wants her, too. And she might want him.
In the beautiful town of Verde, on the shores of Lake Templeton, she begins to rebuild her life. But the dark clouds of the past have not vanished completely, and one last storm of deceit remains. A choice must be made, and only the deepest love will see them through.

EXCERPT:
“Tell me we have a chance to make this
work.”
Caroline stiffened beside him. “What do
you mean?”
Jack pulled back and sat up. “You know
what I mean. Tell me we have a chance to make a relationship work.”
Caroline rolled away and sat up, too. “I
thought you understood. I told you a month ago I’m not ready for a serious
relationship.”
Jack leaned forward and glared into her
eyes. “Then what the hell was tonight all about? You, me, the lovemaking? I
thought it meant something.”
Caroline swallowed and reached for her
nightshirt. “I was offering you tonight, Jack. Just tonight. Tonight was about
the moon and the stars and the dancing. Tonight was about giving in to the
attraction. Tonight was about doing what you’ve been trying to get me to do for
the last six weeks. Yes, the sex was great, but…” Her eyes misted and she
looked away.
“But?” Jack prompted.
“But it was just a fling, Jack. Just a
romantic interlude between two consenting adults.”
