About the book

"You really had me fooled, didn't you?"

Andrea shrank away from him, appalled by the depths of his hatred. "You've got to believe me!" she cried passionately. "I never cheated you!"

Less than a month ago, Stuart had loved Andrea with tenderness and passion. But now he had come to despise her and to regret ever having married her.

How could she ever make him understand what had really happened when he had seen her with Ronald? The task that lay before her seemed impossible... yet she had to try!
