Rising Star
THEY WERE THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS.

Cindy Lancaster had grown up loving her Blue Ridge Mountain home but dreaming of another life--a life in the city with a man who loved her.

Then one night the stranger came. Rane Dartsfield Randolph III was a man to be reckoned with--and loved. And Cindy did love him, until the day she became his wife and discovered how far from love his feelings were.

He thought she had tricked him into marriage so she could leave the mountains, and he had every intention of making her pay for her passage.
