Title: The Last Hero
First published: December 1984
Description: Toby Baxter never remembered the instant she met Jake Hammond, but that moment had bound them together forever. Toby felt an unfamiliar exultation when Jake gently brushed her cheek with his fingers, summoning forth a sensation of warmth and womanliness she'd never thought herself capable of feeling. Her innocence of heart and spirit was a revelation to Jake, who'd never loved a woman as he loved Toby -- a fragile lady with secrets she couldn't share. What began as a special friendship blossomed into a sweetly mature love, but could Jake's tender caresses give Toby the courage to face the demons that haunted her dreams?
