title: After the Fire
author: Ferris, Rose Marie
description: It had been seven years, a lifetime since Shannon MacLeod had returned to Shagbark Inn and confronted Adam Byrne. Yet here he was, a challenge, a threat, a promise of trouble to come. One look and the memories flooded back--his arms, his lips, and the passion they had shared until the fateful fire.
  
  In spite of the years and miles that had separated them, they were still married. The desire she had tried so hard to extinguish had refused to die. He was hers to have and to hold for as long as she could. Had time changed him? Or was he still the treacherous lover who had betrayed her so long ago?
