title: Return of the Drifter
author: Adams, Melodie
description: HAD SHE COME TOO FAR TO LOOK BACK NOW?
  
  When Kathryn was seventeen, the fiery excitement of Judson Taylor's touch had seared itself into her imagination and flesh forever.
  
  Seven years after she'd been devastated by his abandonment, she had risen from the ashes of her painful past. Kathryn finally had it all: her own boutique, an independent life-style and the love of a man touted to be Kansas's next governor.
  
  And now Judd had returned, no longer the shiftless drifter she'd known, but the head of Monument Oil--a powerful man determined to set the record straight, no matter what it cost him...or her.
