Stormy passions amid a genteel world of roses and lace... Spirited, well-bred Millicent Hayes had lived all her life amid the gently rolling hills and lush woodland of Emmetsville, Texas. Bound by her duty to her tragically crippled brother, the dark-haired innocent had never known desire...until a handsome stranger moved next door and unleashed the floodgates of a breathless passion she'd never believed could be hers.
