| Publisher Description: Every novel in this collection is your passport to a romantic tour of the United States through time-honored favorites by America's First Lady of romance fiction. Each of the fifty novels is set in a different state, researched by Janet and her husband, Bill. For the Daileys it was an odyssey of discovery. For you, it's the journey of a lifetime. Your tour of desire begins with this story set in New York. As the daughter of the tycoon Reuben Gentry, Samantha's experience with men has been disillusioning. But she goes willingly to Chris Andrews's home on an island on the St. Lawrence River, expecting her father to join her there. Suddenly, she realizes she is subtly, but surely, being held prisoner. Are Chris's calls to her father about ransom? Is he really Chris Andrews? Samantha knows she has to escape. But the thought of never seeing Chris -- or whoever he was -- again, fills her with desolation... |
