Genesis PressAustin Treadwell; Patsy Washington Add to Wish List
Multicultural Romance | Multicultural African-American
After discovering that her fiancΓ© is involved with her best friend, Patsy Washington breaks their engagement even though she is expecting their child. To protect the family name, her autocratic father blackmails Austin Treadwell into marrying her although, deeming Austin unworthy of Patsy, he had brutally squashed their teenaged relationship. If Austin discloses the blackmail to Patsy, her father will bring trumped-up charges against him that will result in jail, and he will never realize his dream of practicing law.
Austin marries Patsy but vows to himself that he will not consummate the marriage. Yet the love of their youth is quickly rekindled as Patsy teaches herself how to live as a poor woman, refusing to accept her parents' help, and builds a life for herself and her husband. Her unselfish giving is matched by Austin's sacrifices to lighten her burden. The passion between them erupts like molten lava and will not be denied. Austin risks his career to set his marriage in order. This story of pride and sacrifice, of fiery passion and of powerful, healing love will stay with you forever.
