Echoes in the Mist

City girl, Stanley Howard risks losing a multi-million-dollar inheritance to charity if she fails to fulfill her deceased aunt's last wish. Torn between obligation and fear of exotic animals, the pampered diva is forced to live in a Zambian wildlife sanctuary. She can handle the handsome lodge manager's dreamy eyes and the tough volunteer jobs he doles out, but she can't reconcile her memories of the stern guardian who'd raised her to the meek old woman he idolizes. Should she reveal the truth about her dead aunt or let the soft-spoken Elephant Whisperer tame her too?

Wildlife conservationist, Jeremy Spade's search for the perfect woman ends when he picks up Stanley at the airport in Livingstone, Zambia. The golden-eyed California beauty steals his heart in her chic safari clothing and fedora hat. But she's like a lioness on a hunt, who'll stop at nothing to get what she wants. He longs to be more than a distraction if not an impediment in this clever woman's agenda to help save the elephants and village people. Should he trust her well-meaning intentions or fear them?
