Love in the Dark

He had always been a threat. Stephanie had come halfway around the world, built a new life, met another man. And now Gerard Tenniel had arrived -- Gerard, who knew all about the scandal five years earlier and threatened to talk about it. Unless. It was the 'unless' that bothered Stephanie. She agreed that disclosure would hurt her brother's career, that her budding romance must die a-blooming. She even agreed to leave town with Gerard. So what else did he want? She was shocked to learn that despite the bitterness left by the trial, Gerard still wanted her. But was it for love -- or revenge?
