About the book
Celebrity actress Diamond Swain needs a peaceful place to hide out from the news-hungry paparazzi--a place like Whispering Pines. And yet from the moment she arrives at the remote Texas ranch, Diamond finds herself at odds with its rugged owner, Jake Madaris--a man who challenges her to care about more than making it to the top.Jake doesn't have time to babysit some Hollywood star. Then he comes face-to-face with beautiful, compassionate Diamond and is drawn into a whirlwind, secret romance. But is what he shares with her strong enough to overcome the media's prying eyes? Together Jake and Diamond must discover what's truly important...if they're to claim a love that lasts a lifetime.
