A Different Light
SHE FOUGHT A WOMAN'S BATTLE IN A MAN'S WORLD--BUT IT COULD COST HER AN UNEXPECTED CHANCE TO LOVE

Beautiful, vibrant Athena Moran was known in the town of Woodside Heights, New Jersey, as the daughter of beloved former city councilman Afi Stavros and the devoted wife of police officer Johnny Moran--until a drug dealer's bullet made her a widow. Now Athena is just a lonely woman with a nine-year-old daughter and a broken heart.

When she meets Quentin Forbes, a single father and the town's newest newspaper reporter, Athena begins to feel emotions that she believed had died along with her husband. Strong, gentle, and handsome, Quentin is drawn to Athena too, believing her to be a different kind of woman from his career-driven ex-wife.

But before their relationship deepens, Athena is asked to run for mayor with the backing of her father's political machine. Hoping to be her own woman at last, Athena begins to realize that she is just a pawn in a game of power, entangled in the secrets of sex and money hidden inside city hall. All too soon deceit and betrayal are making Quentin her enemy, all too fast Athena faces stunning revelations about the past...and what she must risk for another chance to love.
