Possessions — Judith Michael

When Katherine Fraser's husband vanishes, she discovers that he has hidden his past from her...and when his wealthy family finds her and sweeps her into a world of power and luxury, the fearful, dependent wife is gradually transformed into a vibrant, glamorous woman. From San Francisco to Paris to the Cote d'Azur, Katherine tastes the romance and elegance of a world she had never dreamed possible. Torn by conflicting loyalties, not knowing if her husband will ever return, she confronts her future...whether to cling to her past, or to plunge into a richly exciting new life, and a deep, passionate new love.
