Scarlet Woman (Silhouette Special Edition, No 975)

Rating:
Summary: :)
Review: Holly Moran was the young woman from the poor side of town, who found herself attracted to the son of the town's most powerful richest man. Holly later ran off and married the young man that she loved, Alan Van Arsdale. Alan's father cut him off completely, from money and personal contact. He still kept in touch with his older brother, Clint, mostly to ask him for money. Holly's marriage went from bad to worse. Alan was killed in a car accident for which she took the blame. Holly knew she could never go back to her hometown where everyone hated her and blamed her for Alan's death. However, many years later, she had to come home to be with her aunt at the hospital.

Clint Van Arsdale knew that he should avoid his brother's widow, but he could not. Clint has always found himself attracted to Holly. He also did not want to blame her for his brother's death, though the evidence points right at her. Clint wanted to spend time with Holly, even knowing his father hated her.

Clint and Holly could not be more different, yet the passion between them is undeniable. The things they find impossible to ignore are always between them: His father, her family, the fact that she is his brother's widow, the accident that killed his brother, and his brother's trust fund that he is afraid that Holly is after. They need to talk to each other, trust each other, and take a leap of faith with each other, or risk possibly losing the love of a lifetime.
