description: Love Her. . .Or Lose Her
  Ambassador Justin Crawford is torn between two lovers--his wife, and his work. Cheryl Crawford has always been in her husband's corner, supportive and patient. But the night Justin allows yet another state dinner to come between them, he discovers that Cheryl's patience has run out--and according to the Dear Justin letter she leaves behind, so has she. As far as she's concerned, politics has made for estranged bedfellows, and she's convinced that, for Justin, the thrill is gone.
  
  Losing hope that the woman he truly loves will ever return, Justin realizes he'll have to do more than wait. But he may have to get in line. An old beau of Cheryl's is back on the scene, and he's having no trouble giving her the attention she's been missing. To top it off, a new administration is replacing Justin. With his career in the air and his wife being wooed by another man, Justin will need to use all his diplomatic skills to get his act--and his marriage--back together. Because after years of following protocol, it's time for him to follow his heart.
