It's by Nora Roberts....Need I say more,...It has to be at least really good. I haven't read it yet,but my sister,who is an avid reader like me passed,passed it along.I just have soo many books lined up at this time I thought I'd like others to enjoy until I get to this one,I hope that weather it is this one(mine) or anothers copy ,someday hopefully it will come back to me.Happy reading to all...
