The Long Way Home

She felt like a puppet on a string

Dareen Sheffield's life had always been manipulated by others. Even the top fashion model's engagement had been arranged for "publicity." Well, Dare wanted no part of it anymore.

So the nineteen-year-old fled to a secluded farm house in the heart of Tennessee. There she met Rip DuLong, a carefree winery owner, a man who treated her like a real woman for the very first time. Dare had never felt so happy.

Until she discovered it wasn't easy to bury the past...nor plan a future with a man who wanted no strings attached.

Hero: Rip DuLong
Heroine: Dareen "Dare" Sheffield
