About the book
MARRY IN HASTE, REPENT AT LEISURE. And Valerie had plenty of time to repent--four long years. Her marriage to Sean Hunter had been deliriously happy until her desire to become a dancer had torn them apart. Her husband gone, Valerie lost her career as well when she bore Sean the son whose existence he never even suspected. Then Sean walked back into her life, and once he met Michael she knew he intended to have the boy--at any cost. How could she cope with a man who wanted her only for her son's sake a man who was only marking time until he could put another in her place?
