Table of contents: title: Windy Ryan had left Hot Springs years ago.  In the concrete canyons of New York she'd learned to cut her losses.  Only modestly successful as a model, she'd invested in a new dream - Ryan's Oasis - and come back to create her future.  Was Jack Dodge part of it?; title: Jack had stayed.  Time had turned the laughing boy into a wild, untamed man.  Yet, gazing into his rugged face, into his searing blue eyes, Windy thought she saw beyond the bitter loneliness.  In his arms she remembered the boy, sensed the mystery of the man she might dare to know... a man who filled her with wild, aching desire.  Going, staying, had changed them both.  Could they accept those changes?  Could love bloom anew in the magical splendour of the desert, or was she grasping at arid hopes, impossible dreams - a desert mirage?
