Publisher's Synopsis
After struggles, misconceptions, and near-death, Claire Montgomery and Andrew Fletcher are finally together again. But their joy is short-lived. Moving forward with their lives could prove as difficult as finding their way back to each other had been.
Beth Alexander will never forgive Claire for her deceit, both the real and the imagined. Her heart is closed to reason and hardened by the loss of her brother. It may take finding a love of her own in order to see the truth and understand the past. Nearly forgotten relatives in the Montgomery family have come to Mobile. Tragedy, mixed emotions, and deep prejudice accompany Martha's youngest son's return. The new arrivals ignite more than one kind of flame. After an elaborate wedding, Victoria O'Malley and her new husband return to his home in Bridgeport, Connecticut. His estate ... His acquaintances ... His money ... are more than even she could have dreamed of, until she discovers that John Martin is not the man she thought he was. Lust ... Power ... Greed ... Deceit ... Desires run hot and deep, and Southern Secrets are buried even deeper.
