title: Goddess of Joy
author: Marshall, Bevlyn
description: When catastrophe stole Holly Murphey's zest for living, she found the strength to survive, but true joy eluded her. Then one day she stumbled upon a curious Oriental carving dubbed the Goddess ofJoy. Ancient lore claimed the figurine held the key to happiness.
  
  Holly gave the legend little credence--until handsome, virile contractor Philip Irons began hotly pursuing her. At once she experienced the long-forgotten blush of youthful exuberance, and, in Philip's arms, she could no longer resist life's sensual tug. Was her good-luck charm responsible? More worrisome, did avid collector Philip want her . . . or simply the Goddess?
