Mike Tremayne had come home. After eight years of drifting, he was finally ready to face beautiful Beth Nightingale, the woman who'd haunted his dreams since the night he left her.

But Beth had no intention of falling for a maverick Mike Tremayne again. After all, he'd already betrayed her twice first, when he became engaged to her sister, and then again, when he walked out on both of them .
