From the author of the beloved classic The Windflower comes a moving and tender contemporary romance of one couple's journey to rediscover love after their lives have completely changed. A loving and devoted wife, Christine Ludan has waited six months to be reunited with her husband. Night after night, she has longed for his kiss, ached for his touch, and dreamed of the day he comes home. But when that day arrives-when he walks through the door and sweeps her into his arms-she feels awkward, even shy. Jesse is different . . . and there's something he's not telling her. A passionate and dedicated journalist, Jesse Ludan served six months in prison because he refused to abandon his principles and testify in court. Now a free but changed man, Jesse must work harder than ever to regain Christine's trust, to rekindle the magic they once shared, and to reignite the kind of passion and intimacy that will grow stronger every day-and hotter every night . . .
