I like this book but I feel that the heroine had to do way too much apologizing to the hero. He was sleeping with another woman when they were first together and he never actually says that he is sorry about that nor acknowledges that she has a right to have felt anger when she found out. Why is she the one begging for forgiveness throughout the second half of the book?

After seven long years, Justin had finally stopped running. Though years had passed since he'd left town, Justin Kincaid still had something to prove. Especially to Megan Bartlett, the only woman he'd ever loved and the one woman he could never forgive. This couldn't be happening, Megan told herelf, Justin was back, Justin Kincaid had returned. But the boy he'd been was gone, replaced by a man who'd brought Megan a child to cherish. And to confront.

Comment: Life in a small town. Megan lived in terror of her reputation being compromised and Justin held it against her. A lot of conflict there. Both characters emotions and viewpoints were presented. Story also had an additional plot with a very exciting end. I figured who the villain was soon enough, but the discovery and apprehension were still intense. Very satisfying read.

this book is well written and has a suprise twist in it. It is like reaading two books in one. It is a shame that they took it off print.
