Description

American tennis champ Julia Ross is at the top of her game and the top of the world. With corporate sponsors and adoring women falling at her feet, the gloriously talented athlete believes she is living a dream. And she is—until a career threatening injury wakes her to the harsh reality that fans are notoriously fickle and fair-weather friends (and lovers) are a dime a dozen. Australian painter Eliot Bancroft is wealthy enough to lead a very comfortable life, and her active lifestyle keeps her beautiful body tanned and toned. But for what? Trapped in a loveless marriage, Eliot has wrapped her life around her beloved seven-year-old daughter, ignoring her own inner feelings—and desires. A chance meeting between these two women will soon change their lives forever. And one of them will be forced to decide how high a price she dares pay for the embrace of the woman she loves. Originally published in 1997 by Naiad Press, this is the author’s updated edition. Editor: Christine Cassidy Cover Designer: Judith Fellows
