About the book

Self control was only a mask she wore. Gina Bennett, victim of a freak accident, had suffered plenty. She wasn't about to let her publisher, Leo Sterne, open old wounds—especially the memory of her disastrous first infatuation. It was bad enough that Leo thought she'd ruined his sister's marriage. Now he wanted much more than an admission of her guilt. He needed her to help his deaf young son. And against his will, he wanted her. All Gina wanted was to forget—forget the past, her loneliness and her need for love. But Leo and the boy made that impossible.

Subjects: Contemporary romance, grief and loss, loneliness, hearing impairment
