Beloved Intruder

Nothing could take Joyce away from her show business career. Or so she thought. But when the charm of a southern gentleman sent her whirling she wasn't sure which stage to land on.

"You're not wanted here."

Joyce Hilliard was well on her way to becoming a TV star. But a meeting with a wealthy, handsome southern executive, Pierce Hansley, opened another world to her. Swept away by love, Joyce accepted Pierce's marriage proposal … with its conditions, willingly gave up everything she had worked and studied for, and set out with him for Atlanta.

But snobbery, hatred, and jealousy from three other women in Pierce's life shattered Joyce's wedding plans and her hopes for a future with the man she loved. Joyce wondered whether or not she could handle this real-life drama, with Pierce's family mansion as the stage, without a script in front of her.
