Lying in intensive care after a brutal attack, Cassandra Winter finds herself looking for protection from an unseen enemy in the arms of her one and only love, Chase Tessier, a man she had thought she would never see again

The latest romantic mystery from Stone (Imagine Love, 1996; Pearl Moon, 1995, etc.) offers a variation on genre themes. The actress Cassandra Winter is badly injured by an unknown assailant. The assault stirs up a variety of previously concealed secrets, and spurs Cass to reconsider her life, including a long-ago romance with the handsome Chase Tessier. As Cass and Chase warily attempt to rebuild their relationship, the figure stalking Cass shows no signs of giving up. All of this is played out against the appropriately privileged background of the Napa Valley. Competent storytelling with few surprises.

Stone, best-selling romance author, has written another light drama that is sure to prove popular with her fans. It tells the story of a beautiful actress, Cassandra Winter, and the true love of her life, the fabulously wealthy (and also handsome and moody) Napa Valley wine wizard Chase Tessier. Due to a series of tragic misunderstandings, Cassandra and Chase separate. When Cassandra is viciously attacked and hovers near death, Chase spends a lot of time in her hospital room reflecting, foiling further attacks on her life, and helping the addled detectives solve the crime and find the attacker. Despite being formulaic and contrived, Stone's latest work does its job--it's an easy read about an unrealistic, fantasy-based relationship that tidily resolves all the issues by its happy ending. Kathleen Hughes
With eight million copies of her books in print, life must be a bed of roses for romance author Stone. But not for her heroine, who lies in intensive care, her fate dependent upon the man she (inexplicably) jilted.
