It's late 1974, and high school senior, Melinda Dawson is pregnant for her boyfriend, Greg Hart. Before she has a chance to tell him about the pregnancy, her parents take her off to a Dallas home for unwed mothers. After six long months with no word from her, Greg hopes to put his broken heart behind him by serving his country with the U.S. Marines. After almost dying during the birth of her child, Melinda can't bear to return to her hometown without her baby. She stays in Texas, eventually finding a career as a nanny for two children of a wealthy family. Thirty years later finds her back in her hometown to care for her ailing father. She soon runs into her old flame, Greg, retired from the military and mayor of McCray. Sparks fly between them, rekindling the smoldering embers of a strong mutual attraction. Can they bypass old feelings of bitterness and abandonment in order to find the most precious part of themselves? Hart's Desire is an ebook short in direct relation to my La Fleur de Love series. It introduces characters that appear in Last First Kiss, Brown Eyed Girl, and Heaven in Your Eyes.
