Debra Barry, a soap opera script writer and Graham Reid, the carpenter, in one of Barbara Delinsky's earlier books, republished in 1999. I am more familiar with her newer works, but found this one enjoyable.

This is one of Barbara Delinsky's earlier novels. A very good read however.

Enjoyed this book. It was a fairly quick read.
Not one of Delinsky's best.
Excellent! 2 wounded people drawn together by desire, can they find the courage to build on the promise of love?
I didn't read this book. I began and found it wasn't my style.

This book was only ok for me. Mainly because it is an older book and it felt dated.
This is the new edition, nice book~
