MORNING SONG MM

An innocent Mississippi wildflower in the early bloom of womanhood, headstrong Jessie Lindsay will do anything to thwart the charming, enigmatic fortune hunter who has come to wed her widowed stepmother. But there is far more to Stuart Edwards than Jessie first imagines. And in the heat of a blistering Southern summer, the handsome riverboat gambler will awaken feelings she has never known-and share with her his dangerous secrets-as reckless, undeniable desire propels them both toward scandal, possible ruin . . . and impossible love.
