Passion's Fury

the long version

On the cusp of civil war, April Jennings' quiet and idyllic existence was about to be changed forever. Snatched from her sheltered innocent world of plantation life and southern aristocracy, April found herself captivated by a rogue adventurer with a devious mind and demanding caresses. Rance Taggart was that man, a real man, a man like she'd never known before. He was passionate, determined and strong, but so was she. April had plans of escape and of finding home. Rance had plans of finding fame and fortune. In a war-ravaged world turned upside-down, they would have to risk their dreams to have each other.
