About the book
Lovely Sarah Rushden had never forgotten childhood vacations spent at her grandparent's cottage in Sussex, or the Rannock children with whom she had played. But when she inherited the cottage 16 years later, and went there to write her second novel, she never expected her "playmates," especially Simon Rannock, to re-enter her life and alter her future. Sarah knew immediately that Simon was destined to hold a special place in her heart, but he confused her. First by asking her not to help his once successful father write his memoirs. And then, by seeming to welcome the return of Anna, his former lover. Sarah did not know whether to feel used or to fight for the man she loved. Could Simon's friendship grow into the fervor she yearned for, or did his brotherly concern simply mean that his passion was reserved for another?
