Fire within Fire

the long version

The Brooding, Enigmatic Stranger... He'd watched her run on the beach at sunrise, and she'd haunted his nights ever since. But not until he heard the entrancing music of her guitar on a moonlit beach did he realize how deeply she'd made him desire her before he ever knew her name. Damien Averone felt that he was the music Ginnie Summers was playing, the embodiment of her longing for a man to awaken her to passion and soothe the fire in her blood. Ginnie felt unnerved, aroused, and excited by the ruggedly sexy man whose gaze burned her with its heat, but did she dare tangle with a lover who commanded her surrender with kisses of velvet flame? She'd always run from other people's expectations, but now she was overwhelmed by Damien's intensity. With a suddenness that frightened her, he'd drawn her into his arms... and into his life. Ginnie tasted like everything Damien had ever been hungry for, but once the powerful businessman betrayed the lovely sea siren, could she learn to forgive him for loving her too much?
