But after seeing him again, Libby finally admits her anger was only a way of hiding her softer, truer feelings for him.** Now that they've been given a second chance, not even malicious rumors can keep them from marriage. ***Unfortunately, Libby knows all too well that being married to a man is no guarantee of his love.***
