About the book
Once she'd worn her heart on her sleeve for Matt Colter. Not now. Of course she was horrified at his kidnapping while on a Middle East assignment and glad of his release - but their marriage had gone on hold so many times while Matt flew off to trouble spots, it had never really had a chance. She'd built a satisfying new life in the years they'd been apart, with a promising new relationship. So when Matt answered, "Forever!" to her question of how long he was staying, Lesley was furious.
