description: LOVE HAD ELUDED THEM ONCE.  ONLY THE BRAVEST HEARTS WOULD SEIZE A SECOND CHANCE.
  
  Sheriff Rafe Wade shunned his elegant Eastern past for the new and untamed West.  But his dreams were shadowed by tragedy.
  
  Then, like a lone star in a dark sky, Rafe's beautiful young friend arrived from Philadelphia.  For India Bakker, whose cool blue eyes masked the shame of her mother's perfumed brothel, hope was here--with the one man she could ever love.
  
  Both felt the longing to start again...and the fear of losing once more.  But within their empty hearts, a flicker of love waited--ready to burn with a passion born long ago.
