description: BOUND BY TIES TO THE PAST, THEIR LOVE STRUGGLED FOR A FUTURE
  
  TONI COULD NO LONGER DENY HER NEED FOR LOVE
  
  She had long clung to the memory of her dead husband, permitting herself only working relationships with men.
  
  Meeting the cynical Dr. Luis Quental at his Amazon jungle hospital was an emotional shock. It jolted her back to life! A member of a TV documentary crew, Toni found passions in herself as primitive as those of the tribe they were filming.
  
  Love flamed between them--unexpectedly, almost against their will. But Toni's reawakening turned to heartbreak when she learned that Luis, too, had a burden from the past. His was more than a memory, his was a real live wife....
  
  Hero: Dr./Doctor Luis Quental
