Double doubting

Her defenses were dangerously weak

Liz had tried to keep her husband's memory alive after his death, but with the years, his image had misted over and receded from her. In Avignon, where they'd been happy, she hoped his image would crystallize and comfort her again. But on her way to Avignon, Liz became stranded at the home of Jean-Marc St. Clair, a man who invaded her thoughts and threatened her security. Jean-Mares eyes promised everything she'd lost--and more. He promised nothing less than a fearsome kind of love that would require Liz's complete surrender--heart, soul, body and mind.
