No Turning Back — Christine Rimmer

THE TURNING POINT

They had met before--but under the worst of circumstances. The last time Caitlin O'Neill had seen Jake Strand, he'd been wearing little more than a smile. She'd hardly noticed; her world had been tumbling down around her. Since then she'd turned her life around and she wanted no part of him.

Seeing the disdain in Caitlin's eyes had also been a turning point for Jake. He'd become determined to better himself and he waited years until he decided he was good enough to see her again. But though he'd hoped he could gain Caitlin's favor, nothing prepared him for the intense passion that flared between them--and their love.
