Tender Awakening
How long had Laine Sinclair lived on hope? Her work-touring, speaking, keeping alive an active interest in recovering the Vietnam vets still missing in action-had become her whole life and kept that hope alive. Now it was dead. She knew for certain. Jim, her fiance, was gone-forever And Clay Marsh, liaison between the MIA group and the Pentagon, should have known it wouldn't be easy for Laine to let go of the past. In the elegance of Georgetown, in the exhilarating freedom of Virginia Beach, she accepted his charm, his companionship, his fiery friendship. But did she dare stop struggling against her own long-denied passions... could she accept what she felt as a tender awakening after a long dark sleep, or would it forever seem a forbidden, guilty desire?
