If you liked Elizabeth and Darcy in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, then you will love Laurel and Adron. Never did two people misunderstand each other more while fighting the greatest passion of their lives. Adron is so in control of everything and everyone within his sphere, except for his own wayward heart. Deeply hurt as a child by his feckless mother, Adron's trust isn't easily gained, especially if you are a beautiful woman. Laurel, young and beautiful, is a widow with a  young son, heir to a fortune and great estate. While her life might be lonely, it should have been peaceful and comfortable but for the fact that Adron, her dead husband's cousin and her child's legal guardian, is exerting his considerable power to keep mother and child apart. Why then, does her pulse race with passion whenever he is near? Woodson has given us two characters so human and real that the reader would recognize them if they were to walk into the room.
