An Unforgettable Caress
Mariette couldn't resist! There was attorney Paul Gallagher's appointment book lying untended on the desk. Did it contain the name of the mystery woman he refused to reveal--his client, her real mother? She'd had to look. And been caught red-handed!

Had she gotten so close only to fail? If her natural mother refused to meet her, Mariette swore she'd go to the courts. Twenty-five years ago she'd been adopted. The Ardens had given her a wonderful childhood, a fine education. Her adoptive father had just retired, making her the proud new owner of Raleigh's finest flower shop. Mariette had no anger, no regrets. But she had to find her roots. The handsome Harvard lawyer stood between her and the truth. But she never imagined that she would discover both the door to the past and the key to her future in his passionate kiss, his unforgettable caress.
