This book about two people in a tradgety, reflects how when Love occurs, it is not easily revoked. When Casey gets into a car accident, her knight in shining armor gallants into her life like a silent life saving storm. Because of her injuries, her self-esteem drops to believing no one would want her how she is, until Dan taught her the overflowing passion of what his love really meant. Through this book, Dorothy Garlock expresses the feelings and emotions of the characters with a sence of pride and power. She delievers an outstanding book! A must-read!

Everyone else has recapped the story, so I won't do that. However, I read this book many years ago and then re-read after this purchase. I find the same things wrong with it today as then. I thought the heroine was too whiny and a wee bit self-involved. I got a bit irritated by the massive pity-party. I am a huge Dorothy Garlock fan and this is the only book she has ever written that I have not been emotionally engaged. Which is ironic since the subject matter would normally have me in tears, just the thought of recovery and going on. The hero was not much better, I didn't know who I wanted to slap first. Although, I am married to a man as decent and kind, so they really do exist!

This book is about Casey Farrow and Dan Murdock. Casey is cosmedics rep who is recovering from a terrible car crash that left her scared and frail. Dan Murdock is the one who ran into the back of her car on a foggy night and pushed her car
into a truck carrying a load of windows. The glass shattered and sent shards of glass over Casey's face and body. Dan
Murdock pulled Casey from the wreckage and saves her live.

From the moment Casey wakes in the hospital Dan is by her side. He tells her that he feels as if they have been together
in a past life. While this sound romantic, in this story it is realy creepy. Dan is an overbearing man that bulldozes
over Casey and never gives her time to come to terms with her new life and her injuries.

I did not like this "hero" at all.
