First published 1991
Harden Tremayne carries deep wounds from his past. His mother's betrayal cut him twice: she forced him to end his engagement, and his young fiancée killed herself afterward. Now he despises all women and lives with the shame of his illegitimate birth. Miranda Warren knows her own kind of pain. She lost her husband and son in a car crash and cannot move beyond the tragedy that destroyed her family. When these two damaged souls meet, attraction flares between them instantly. But Harden's hatred runs deep, and Miranda remains trapped by grief. Both fight the pull they feel toward each other. Their battle against love will be fierce, but beneath their resistance lie two hearts that have been alone too long. If they can find the courage to trust again, happiness might finally be within reach.
