From the Author
Wendy Morgan is a pseudonym I use for the category romance novels I write for Zebra's Bouquet line. However, I have written about three dozen other books under my own name, Wendy Corsi Staub, in various genres including historical romance, romantic suspense, and series romance. My latest romance under my own name is Long Way Home, a historical from Berkley Jove's new "Friends" line, released in July 1999. You can read more about it and my other titles by looking me up on Amazon under Staub, Wendy Corsi!


From the Back Cover
SHE'D LEARNED TO LIVE IN THE SHADOWS There was a time when bubbly Olivia Halloran was the ultimate carefree California girl--happily married to a charming, wealthy businessman. But that was before her husband's violent treachery forced Olivia to take her young son and flee in the middle of the night. Now, living under an assumed name in a small town far from the bright lights of L.A., the last thing Olivia needs is to call attention to herself--or to get involved with anyone again. So when she rescues two young children from drowning, she suddenly finds herself in the media spotlight. For the spirited twins turn out to belong to the mysterious Max Rothwell, a brooding, reclusive man Olivia is irresistibly attracted to. ...UNTIL LOVE BROUGHT HER HEART OUT OF HIDING Haunted by his own secrets and the tragic death of his wife, Max wants nothing to do with romance. Though he's drawn to Olivia's quiet strength and compassionate nature, something tells him she's not who she appears to be. What begins as a reluctant truce soon grows into a sensual longing, bringing two wounded souls together in a tender passion that may heal them both if they can learn to trust in their hearts...
