    About this audiobook

    Holly

    She is a fragile innocent haunted by memories of her past and by dreams of the man who once shared her secrets…the only man she can ever truly love.

    Shannon

    One of the world’s great beauties, her face and figure grace the fashion pages of the most elegant magazines. Though many desire her, only one may have her.

    Holly Shannon North

    She is a contradiction: assured yet vulnerable, irresistible yet untouched. Destiny has brought her back to Hidden Springs, where she can be one person, where romance once touched her tender young heart—back to Lincoln McKenzie, the proud California rancher, long since hardened by life’s tragedies. Now, in the icy chill of a desert storm, they must find the way back to love together—to rekindle the fire whose healing warmth has drawn them home.

      Since it came out in 1951, The Catcher in the Rye has meant different things to different readers. For some, Holden Caulfield was the rebellious voice of a generation; for many today, he’s a whiny rich kid; for a pair of recent biographers, he’s the

      Even though I expected a romance in the 80s style, the plot and characters were just horrible. Linc's behavior towards Holly/Shannon is plain disgusting. Her reaction to him is extremely stupid and unrealistic. Which man wouldn't recognize a person anymore just because she wears make-up one day and not the next? He wants to marry her but admits not to love her? How does that make sense?

    • 1/5
      Honestly, I can handle mediocre writing for the sake of a warm and fuzzy romance novel but this was awful. I absolutely can't stand Linc (the lead male character). How anyone could see past his absolute hatred of women to view this as a functional relationship is beyond me.
