Finding Peace — Lisa Shea

Elizabeth has finally gotten free. Free of her abusive father, free of the cruel fiance he had pledged her to, and free of the ties to her past. She has left it all behind and vowed to find a new start in life.

When she first meets Richard, every instinct is to hold him at arm's length. She will not allow herself to be hurt again. Slowly his patient understanding and steadfast honor draw her past her walls and encourage her to risk her heart.

Then Corwin strides in from her past, his cutting remarks and quick hand an all too familiar threat. As he threatens to drag her back into the hell-hole she climbed out of, it is all she can do to cling to the happiness she had barely begun to believe in.
