For the Love of a Child
LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY...
For one reckless, youthful interlude, Lilia Eden had dared to believe in forever. Now she knew better. Fate had cruelly shattered her marriage to the debonair Miles Kane---and now it had struck again.
Nothing could ease Lilia's anguish when Colin, her soon-to-be adopted son, had to be returned to his natural mother---not even Mile's unexpected return. His presence only reminded Lilia that nothing ever lasted, not even a love as intense as theirs.
Gone was the carefree girl Miles had married. In her place was a graceful, desirable woman---a woman whose heartache he longed to soothe. A decade of separation and secrets lay between them, but somehow, some way, Miles meant to reclaim his wife---and adopt Colin---at last.
