In one reckless night, Camille Jameson's life was changed forever: a tall, handsome stranger, an evening of romance--and enough regrets to last a lifetime. Two years later, Camille is a successful interior decorator with the opportunity to restore one of Mississippi's proudest plantations. She arrives excited and eager to face her greatest professional challenge to date--until Zack Prescott saunters through the mansion's front door and back into her life. He is exactly as she remembers, except for the knowing look in his eyes that reminds her of what they once shared. Now, forced to live in unbearably close quarters, Camille and Zack will discover if they have the courage to face the past--and, perhaps, build a future together... No library descriptions found. |

I think my favorite character was Zack's dad, who seemed to be the only level headed person. He knew his son and Camille belonged together, and after overhearing their conversation (in his hospital bed, of all places) about what happened between them and how cheap it made Camille feel, he insisted that Zack do the right thing and marry her. With that kind of start, it's not surprising that their marriage was anything but happy at first. It took a natural disaster for things to finally get straightened out, when some good honest conversation would have done the trick a lot easier.
It occurred to me that some of this might have worked as a regency novel: the innocent girl taken advantage of by a scoundrel, the honorable father insisting that they get married, the misunderstandings as they both realize their true feelings, yet believe they aren't returned, etc. It would have made more sense in that time period.
