The Bride Of Willow Creek

Ten years ago Angie Bartoli eloped with Sam Holland. But before their impetuous marriage even began, they were torn apart by chance. For Angie, the gold band on her finger is a constant reminder of the man she could never forget. Aiming to find her husband and resolve their relationship once and for all, Angie sets out on the adventure of a lifetime. In a small Colorado town, Angie discovers that her young groom has grown into a man--still handsome, irresistible, and infuriating as ever . . . and now the father of two young children. Forced to become a temporary family, Sam and Angie are surprised to find a deeper love awakening between them--one that could require more than they are willing to give if they are to forge a lasting new life on the American frontier.

Lorsque Sam arrive enfin à la gare de Willow Creek, le train est parti depuis au moins dix minutes. Il ne reste plus qu'une personne sur le quai. Sam reconnaîtrait entre mille cette lourde masse de cheveux auburn, l'ovale du visage et la courbe voluptueuse des lèvres. Quoique dans son souvenir, elle était plus petite et ses formes moins sensuelles. Normal : la dernière fois qu'il a vu Angelina Bertoli, elle n'avait que seize ans ! - Sam Holland ?

A peine a-t-il acquiescé qu'il reçoit un formidable direct en plein visage. - Je m'étais promis que si je te revoyais un jour, je te casserais la figure, siffle-t-elle d'une voix rageuse. Eh bien, pour des retrouvailles, c'est réussi !
