The Dreaming — Amanda Stevens

A CLOSET ROMANTIC

Dr. Toni Sinclair was a busy woman whose only time for romance was in her dreams. Then she took a much needed vacation in Egypt and discovered that the ages -- old country, with its ancient pyramids and exotic temples, was everything she had ever imagined.

Her father's prominent State Department post made Toni a target for kidnappers, but it wasn't until she met David Spaulding that she realized just how vulnerable she could be. David was the man of her dreams -- loving, compassionate, patient and honest. Then Toni found out he'd been sent by her father to protect her, and she began to wonder if she could really trust his words of love.
