Description

A beautiful fashion buyer is still in love with someone from her past — and now, she must choose between him and the man she's planning to marry.
Kathleen, a smart and sophisticated woman, is ready to marry the man of her dreams — but she's in love with someone else.
Erik is a talented videographer who finds women easy to love but doesn't want to settle down.
And Seth, the wealthy heir to a department store fortune, could give Kathleen everything she wants . . . except the one thing that show more would make her happy.
All three of them are about to get caught up in a web of lies so fragile that one fateful encounter could tear it apart — and force Kathleen to choose between her family and the needs of her own heart.

Okay, this is one of those stories that has everyone ended up happy in the end (well, mostly everyone..). Even the antagonist ended up with what she wanted in the end, where if it were up to me, I would have loved to slap her around. Of course, I guess that not in the nature of the book considering the time it was written in.

I must say the love scenes are something special, it was written so eloquently and poetic that I almost didn't realize that they were making love. A huge plus for me~

As I said, the story is not that special but still a good read if nothing else.

The love story between Kathleen and Eric starts out a little too fast for me. I did not like their immediate attraction. However, when you continue to read and see all the setbacks and obstacles they have to overcome, you will just fall in love with this story. Sandra Brown has yet to disappoint me.
Typical early contemporary Brown. The characters make or break her books.
