by Catherine George

She wanted his love, not his guilt money "Your money is the cause of all this," Hester accused her ex-husband wildly when their five-year-old daughter was missing and feared kidnapped. Then Jo was returned unharmed, and John set out to move heaven and earth to keep her safe. At least where his daughter was concerned, John was motivated by love rather than a sense of duty. But could he ever feel more than responsibility toward Hester for the accident of Jo's birth? John didn't see why not. "The trick is," he reasoned, "to look past the money to the man behind it."
