Cottage on Catherina Cay
Attractive Amanda Whitby was thrilled about being asked to paint a portrait of young Edwin Bayne. Talented as she was, she felt lucky in getting the commission, lucky in being able to spend a week on a remote off-shore island in the Gulf of Mexico. Amanda felt lucky about a lot of things-except love. She'd followed her heart too many painful times and she wasn't going to let it happen again.

But Amanda hadn't counted on the sinister' atmosphere of Catherina Cay, on meeting a man as dazzlingly handsome and charming as Philip Wendle, nor one as disturbingly intense as young Edwin's widowed father. As she found herself caught in a storm of tangled emotions, more than her own happiness depended on choosing the right man.
