Very good read, an old-lovers-reunited-theme (a favorite of mine) that really sizzles. Although I do find it hard to believe that a young woman like Rebecca would go without any kind of relationship with a man for ten years, pending her reunion with the hero... but still, this story is a good one, and is well told.

From the back cover:
No longer the shattered teenager who had left Thornley vowing never to return, Rebecca Shaw had come to terms wth the legacy of Jay Lorence's betrayal and had built a new life on her terms. But her mother needed her now-and nothing could keep Rebecca from going home.
Tne years melted in Jay's embrace; his kiss reopened old wounds and ignited forgotten temptations. Every instinct warned her to run before her hard-worked-for peace and stability came crashing down.
Rebecca had a new life-one she had no intention of letting Jay invade. But keeping a man like Jay at arem's length was next to impossible-especially when it wasn't what she really wanted to do.
