That Wilder Man

First Loves…

Pilot Max "Wildman" Wilder thought he'd left the Midwest in the past, along with the bitter memories of the one woman he can't forget. But when a devastating flood cripples his small Illinois hometown, Max returns to  fly in much needed supplies  for the disaster victims. The last thing he expects is for Liza Jane Mackenzie to show up on his doorstep in the middle of a thunderstorm. And why can't his stupid heart remember he's supposed to hate her?

Second Chances…

Widow Elizabeth Mackenzie (a.k.a Liza Jane) knows more about living with regrets than anyone. But she's determined not to let the flood waters take the 100 year old Mackenzie House, especially since it now serves as a safe-house for battered women. And if saving it means facing Max Wilder again, she'll do it—even if that means facing his anger over her marrying his best friend. However, fear is the last thing she feels when she sees Max again, and Liza must accept the fact she might still love him after all these years.

Forever Consequences…

As passion flares again between Liza and Max, past secrets and hurts will surface and threaten any chance of happiness. After all this time, is their love strong enough to survive?
