THORNE'S WAY

Valerie Jordan felt that her own life had ended with the death of her fiancé, but she was wrong.

After the fatal car crash that took Etienne, grief had wrapped her in silence. Holed up in her tiny apartment, she believed her heart was interred forever, until an imperious executive shattered her numb retreat and brought her across the Atlantic to Philadelphia.

Life—and love—beckoned to her once more in the person of Jonas Thorne. As head of J.T. Electronics, he demanded absolute efficiency from his new personal secretary, but his piercing gray gaze saw straight through her protective armor.

A man of moods, of bewildering arrogance and stunning tenderness, he made her his wife. His kisses gave her breath; his touch lit a fire in her, and with firm determination he led her into a future brighter than any she had ever known.
