| Publisher Description: Ohio welcomes the young at heart in the series with a romance set in each state, from the author with more than 300 million books in print. 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 Ohio. He both attracted and intimidated her. At their first meeting Elizabeth had thought Jed Carrel insulting and arrogant, though she couldn't ignore the turbulent emotions his kiss had aroused. But she had been only seventeen then and about to marry his brother, Jeremy. Then Jed set off to live his own life abroad. Elizabeth was a mature woman now-and a widow. Jed had unexpectedly returned. Why? "As a woman-" Jed's voice was caressing-you're even more desirable than you were as a girl." |
