"No strings" was what they both agreed to
But a price had to be paid, and when events separated them, Karen bore their child alone. She had loved Val desperately and refused to trap him into a marriage he did not want.
Then, seven years later, he discovered their son's existence and snatched Tony from under her nose. "If you want him, you'll have to come and get him," he told her.

Young Charlotte's loveliness lay not only in her violet eyes with their incredible lashes, but in her fanciful imagination. For instance, she fancied that she would be the one to help her beloved cousin Harry win the girl of his dreams. But the girl of his dreams was a vain and self-centered creature with more interest in Harry's fortune than in Harry.
All of which became very complicated when a stranger impersonating the heir to Harry's disputed fortune showed up and threatened everyone -- especially Charlotte -- who by now realized that she was in love with Harry herself!

Magnus Riordan believed his wife could not possibly hurt him any more than she already had -- until she finally returned to the home they had shared. It was only then that he truly understood the pain of an undying love -- a love clouded forever by half-remembered tragedy, and half-forgotten lies....
This bitter homecoming was becoming more than Jade Riordan could bear. Was her husband unaccustomed coldness yet another legacy of the accident that had taken so much of her past? Or was there something more -- something lost in the dark shadows of her memory?

As she sat by her mother's side and watched her die, Rachel mourned for herself, too. For now she would be all alone, like a young girl without a fate.
It was in this mood that she received the news that she, indeed, was not alone, but was the heir to an unknown estate, and that Clifton Manor, the family mansion, still housed her distant relatives. Though she was warned by Jason, the dark, brooding man who delivered the legacy and who was never to leave her, that there was danger in going to the house, Rachel was eager to claim her fortune and to meet her newly discovered kin. And because she did not heed this warning, she would be very lucky to escape the dark future and deadly trap that was set for her own farewell...
