Title: Season of the Heart
Description: ISLAND GIRL

Architect Lane Stafford had thought of his trip to Florida as a working vacation--until his car broke down on the isolated main road of Caloosa Key. With no sign of civilization in sight, Lane knew the fierce mosquitoes and scorching sun would take their toll quickly. By the time a beat-up car came barreling down the road, Lane wondered if the woman inside was a mirage.

Maggie Rose James could see that the man needed help. No one could survive the blistering tropical sun for long. But she never expected him to collapse in her arms, the victim of sunstroke! As she nursed him back to health, Maggie couldn't resist his easy charm and his dark brown eyes, as warm and intoxicating as a sip of brandy. Lane Stafford was a real heart-breaker. But well-dressed, gorgeous off-islanders did not fall in love with wholesome women who chose to spend their lives on an isolated island.

Lane was surprised by his feelings for the woman who'd saved his life. The sight of her sent hot desire skipping along his veins like quicksilver. He wanted Maggie Rose...forever. Would she feel the same after he told her of his plans to demolish her mother's old inn and build a luxury resort?
