About the book
It was three years since the death of Jeanette's fiance. But Jeanette couldn't get over losing him, and resolved that she would never love again. Then she went to exotic Istanbul and met archaeologist Craig Fleming. Jeanette couldn't resist his compelling magnetism, even though she knew that loving Craig would be as hopeless as loving a memory. For Craig was as cold and unfeeling as the marble gods he excavated. And he was about to marry another woman!
