Soon she has no choice but to flee to her mother's home in Vermont. While she struggles to build something new, she meets another man, Miles Jameson. He isn't flashy or flirtatious, and his family business has deep roots in town. But Gavin is still out there hunting new victims, and he hasn't forgotten the one who got away.

About the Author

Nora Roberts, la autora número 1 en ventas de The New York Times y «la escritora favorita de los Estados Unidos», como la describió la revista The New Yorker, comentó en una ocasión: «Yo no escribo sobre Cenicientas que esperan sentadas a que venga a salvarlas su príncipe azul. Ellas se bastan y se sobran para salir adelante solas. El "príncipe" es como la paga extra, un complemento, algo más... pero no la única respuesta a sus problemas».

Más de quinientos millones de ejemplares impresos de sus libros avalan la complicidad que Nora Roberts consigue establecer con mujeres de todo el mundo. El éxito de sus novelas es indudable, y quienes la leen una vez, repiten. Sabe hablar a las mujeres de hoy sobre sí mismas: sus lectoras son profesionales, fuertes e independientes, como los personajes que crea en sus libros, y sus historias llegan a un público femenino muy amplio porque son mucho más que novelas románticas.

Las cifras son fenomenales: Nora Roberts ha escrito más de 180 novelas que se publican en 34 países, se venden unas 27 novelas suyas cada minuto y 59 han debutado en la primera semana de ventas en el codiciado número 1 de The New York Times.
