Description: Long Journey Back
Where she was concerned Trent had no scruples. Nothing—not even Trent's divorce—could alter the fact that he'd cruelly jilted Melly in favour of a more advantageous marriage. His undeniable love for her only made his betrayal all the more searing, her return to New Zealand even more unsettling. Trent wanted her back. No, demanded it! Passion, trust, the lot. His single minded ambition was to lay bare her love for him at any cost. Yet he hardly even tried to explain the past. And until he did, how could Melly trust opportunity not to sway his ambition a second time?

From the moment they met, Venetia, herself a TV reporter, knew this man could make her suffer as she never had before. So she shied away from his blazing sensuality. Yet there was something else, something in the very core of her soul that wouldn't permit escape....
