Book Description

Secrets and lies…

Rickie Taylor has just learned a devastating secret about her family's wealth. It's tainted because of what her grandfather did. Not only that, he may still be alive—and in hiding.

Jordan Browning, ex-Navy SEAL, is keeping a secret about his own past—and living a lie. He's not the minister he pretends to be. When Rickie learns that "Reverend" Browning's work sometimes takes him into the Paraguayan Chaco—the very place her grandfather is said to be—she asks him to search for the old man. But she can't tell Jordan who he really is or why she wants him found.

Falling in love is a complication neither Jordan nor Rickie can afford. Yet it happens. And it changes both of them. For the first time, the future means more than the past….

Rickie Taylor has just found out that her grandfather had been a Nazi war criminal and that he may still be alive. She asks Reverend Jordan Browning who happens to be going to Paraguay if he would look for her grandfather while he's there. ( she wants to bring him to justice- but she doesn't tell Jordan that- or what her grandfather did ). Jordan is not a minister, he's part of an operation to get families out of Paraguay and set them up with new lives in the States. Jordan won't let her go with him and his partner to Paraguay, so she hides in the back of the plane and doesn't say anything about being there until their practically there and it is too late to turn back. During the course of the book they save a family and look for her grandfather all the while falling in love. He also helps her overcome her guilt in being related to a Nazi war criminal ( once he finds out who her grandfather is, that is. )

Rickie has a brother, Ted and a cousin Bernard who also ! feel guilty about it. Ted feels so guilty he breaks up with his girlfriend, Deborah. It turns out Deborah's pregnant, but she can't seem to get in touch with Ted to tell him. The book ends like that for Deborah and Ted, but then says there's going to be a sequel- 'Deborah's Son' that continues their story.

This review is from: Until There Was You (Harlequin Superromance No. 783) (Paperback)

This book was great! I noticed that Rebecca Winters is an excellent author and has an impressive vocabulary. There were no repetitous elements in this book, which was a relief because in past romance novels that I have read, the authors tend to repeat themselves and use the same phrases over and over. I got this book out of the local library, and I am very glad that I checked it out. I'm not going to summarize it, you can read other people's reviews for that....but definetly read this!
