About the book
Leigh swore she'd never love again! In the two years since she'd left the Far East, Leigh's pain at losing her young husband had not eased. Revisiting the exotic, alluring island of Singapore with its ornate temples and cosmopolitan crowds was a much-needed vacation. And until she was reunited with Jake St John, Leigh could almost believe she had put the past behind her. His kisses and caresses were erotic beyond belief, but Leigh couldn't allow herself to fall in love. How could she possibly give her heart again when it had never healed?
