Memories and Ashes

FLAMES OF WAR, FLAMES OF PASSION

They were outcasts, the proud Hamiltons of Ashe Hill, shunned since the flames of the Civil War had destroyed the lands around them, leaving Ashe Hill mysteriously untouched. Caitlin Hamilton wondered why they had been spared -- and damned. But the war was twenty years past, and best forgotten...then Nicolas Beauvais returned to settle at nearby Willowstone. Nicolas, who had vanished five years before, taking Caitlin's heart with him.

Nicholas. Why was he back? What did he want? Burning with hatred as he stared at Caitlin and Ashe Hill...yet still smoldering with passion that, even now, when they touched by chance, threatened to consume them both!
