And you thought pearls were only to wear around your neck. They have loved each other since childhood - a secret they've kept from each other until each is trapped into marriage to others. But Kelly is determined to make Samantha his - body and soul.

Now he must contend with the constant threat of those who have joined forces to destroy the woman he loves...and her family.

Bio: Anything Is Possible! That's Catherine Snodgrass's motto. Blessed (or cursed) with a vivid imagination, Catherine has learned to turn that "talent" inward. She grew up reading Victoria Holt, Phyllis Whitney, and others, and loves to "go places" in her writing. Readers should expect different locales and deep emotions in Catherine's books. She also believes that life is to be lived not watched, and has done some inner exploring of her own through acting and singing in local community theater. Her work as a paralegal in family and tax law has helped her tune in to the emotions of others and further deepen that aspect of her writing. Having set her children off in the world to explore their own paths, Catherine lives in the beautiful desert of Southern California with her husband (a genealogist) and the animals she loves.
