The child of a broken marriage, seventeen-year-old Tamsyn wasn't looking forward at all to going to Wales to visit the father she hardly knew..until she arrived there and met Hywel Benedict. Her initial feelings of antagonism toward him soon changed into something so deep and violent that it threatened to overwhelm her completely. It was clear that she affected him in some way, too..but marriage? No, he said. He was too old for her, her father's contemporary, not hers. It would not be fair. And besides, there were other complications. Or did it all add up to the fact that he didn't really want her?
