Blue CloudsHere the beloved author of Garden of Dreams presents another delightfully fresh novel destined to enchant the heart and have readers believing once again in the healing power of love. BLUE CLOUDS bursts with Patricia Rice's trademark wit and romance--along with a devilish hero and a determined woman who dares to unlock his self-imposed prison . . . and throw away the key. Around the small California town where Pippa Cochran has fled to escape an abusive boyfriend, Seth Wyatt is called the Grim Reaper--and not just because he's a bestselling author of horror novels. He's an imposing presence, battling more inner demons than even an indefatigable woman like Pippa cares to handle. Yet, while in his employ, she can't resist the emotional pull of his damaged son or the chance to hide in the fortress he calls a home. Then Pippa's amazing gifts begin to alter their world in ways none of them could have imagined. But something soon goes wrong. Dangerous "accidents" occur, threatening to destroy the tremulous new love that Pippa and Seth have dared to discover. . . . |
