Lilacs

LOVE HAD ELUDED THEM ONCE. ONLY THE BRAVEST HEARTS WOULD SEIZE A SECOND CHANCE.

Sheriff Rafe Wade shunned his elegant Eastern past for the new and untamed West. But his dreams were shadowed by tragedy.

Then, like a lone star in a dark sky, Rafe's beautiful young friend arrived from Philadelphia. For India Bakker, whose cool blue eyes masked the shame of her mother's perfumed brothel, hope was here--with the one man she could ever love.

Both felt the longing to start again...and the fear of losing once more. But within their empty hearts, a flicker of love waited--ready to burn with a passion born long ago.
