The Dreaming Dunes — Valerie Parv

Her heart had always ruled her head

Tori Duncan had sympathized with a runaway's story of cruelty at the hands of his uncaring, womanizing father. Her subsequent encounter with the boy's very angry, very caring father, Grant Stalker, convinced her she'd been duped by Australia's leading child actor.

Grant appreciated Tori's innocence, and he offered her a position tutoring young Nicholas on location, where Tori became involved with the most baffling, unpredictable man she'd ever met.

Grant inexplicably turned against her, although she was guilty of nothing--except perhaps of loving unwisely.

Hero: Grant Stalker
Heroine: Victoria "Tori" Duncan
