Forbidden Dreams

Overview: Judy Griffith Gill discovered imagination at an early age because there was little entertainment besides books, comics, and cousins in the wilderness where she grew up. She loved all three and with the latter, acted out many scenes from the books and comics. This obsession with the written word and what can be done with it led to a career in writing--well, that and a neighbor who wouldn't leave her alone if she could't hear the sound of keys clicking madly away. As Shell{u2019}s long-ago past forces its way into the present, she has to wonder: Will she be swept up by love, or betrayal? When she opens her door to a wounded, windswept stranger, Shell Landry has no idea her life is about to change forever. There{u2019}s something disturbingly familiar about Jason O{u2019}Keefe. And it{u2019}s no accident he suddenly appeared on her doorstep in the middle of a December storm, dragging danger in his wake. But Jason is in for a surprise, too. Surely this sultry beauty can{u2019}t be the mischievous imp he fell in love with one magical summer? Jase has traveled the entire west coast to track down Shell Landry, and he can{u2019}t let his growing passion keep him from his mission. To bring a cunning criminal to justice, he needs her help, but it could mean exposing her carefully guarded secret. How much is Shell willing to gamble on their future? Jase O'Keefe stumbles, injured, into Shell Landry's house in the teeth of a terrible storm. Has he come to betray her past and reveal the secret she must, at all costs, protect? When she discovers his true reason for coming, she knows she must help him, but doing so leads her deeper and deeper into love with a man she cannot trust
