Athena's Daughter - Paperback

Seven years of anger. Seven years of longing. One dangerously unfinished love story.

When Athena falls hard for rising British guitarist Derek Marshall during a whirlwind trip to England, she thinks she's found her happily ever after. But visa trouble sends her back to Memphis, where she discovers she's pregnant. Convinced Derek betrayed her, Athena makes a choice that will change all their lives: she keeps their daughter a secret.

Seven years later, Derek's band is at the top of the rock world when he walks into a Memphis record store and comes face-to-face with the woman who broke his heart-and the daughter he never knew existed.

Derek falls instantly for the little girl who should have been part of his life all along. Forgiving Athena won't be nearly as easy. His anger runs deep, but so does an attraction seven years apart never managed to kill.

As old wounds reopen and long-buried truths come to light, Athena and Derek must confront what really tore them apart and whether the love still burning between them is strong enough to survive it.

But some betrayals are harder to forgive than others. And a second chance means trusting the person who broke your heart the first time.
