As Long As I Live

the long version

When lovely, bewitching Joan Crofton came to Boston, she hoped to find peace and an opportunity to pursue her career as a talented artist. But soon she found herself the focal point of a fierce rivalry between the fascinating and mysterious Craig Lamont and his former friend, Philip Bard -- handsome and dazzlingly charming. All thoughts of peace vanished as Joan struggled to decide which way she should turn -- only to suddenly realize she had fallen in love with a man she should have hated, a man who seemed to think of her only as a stepping stone in his climb toward success!
