Book excerpt: Sandi Sherwood wants something just out of her reach—a happy home. To her counselor, that's not an unusual request, but to Sandi, she might as well ask for something simple, like peace on earth. Jack Sherwood is charming, ruggedly handsome, an all around Mr. Nice Guy, until the lethal combination of pain pills and alcohol hits his system turning him into a raging monster. As Jack, he plays the guitar, constructs spec houses, and nurses his swollen, hemorrhaging, joints. As the monster, he comes home from The Pink Elephant Bar exploding with anger and ends up terrorizing his family, attacking his children and destroying their property. Tired of making excuses for his behavior, can Sandi find the inner strength to confront Jack? Is her daughter right when she accuses Sandi of being as guilty of child abuse as Jack? After years of suffering his abuse, why does Sandi still love him? Or does she? Sandi must look inside herself to answer these questions if she's to put closure to the past and move on with her life. But first, she must find their son with nothing more to go on than Jack's cryptic note saying, I told you so.

Though he is Hepburn's sworn enemy, Emma's mysterious captor is everything her bridegroom is not—handsome, virile, dangerous...and a perilous temptation for her yearning heart.
