THE PRINCESS. . .

One reckless teenage night, well-to-do April Hollis tempted a boy from the wrong side of the tracks, and it changed her life forever.  Motorcycle riding, leather jacket-clad Jesse Cawthorne was everything her family forbade: poor, dangerous, with no future that they could see.  A man who would only break April’s heart. But April couldn’t resist Jesse, and they spent a lost, tempestuous summer together.

THE PAUPER. . .

               As summer turned to fall, however, Jesse realized April was playing with his feelings, and his terrible pride forced them apart. He believed she was what he’d always thought:  a spoiled, little rich girls from Windsor Estates.  And knowing he would never fit into her wealthy world, he fled.

THE RECKONING. . .

               Now, ten years later, Jesse was back, and he and April were forced to confront the same impossible passion that had once held them in thrall . . . and damn the consequences.
