Meet Maxine Williams, a dedicated doctor with three great
kids, a challenging career, and the perfect new man in her
life. Her only problem? Her irresistibly charming, utterly
infuriating ex-husband, aka the . .
.
Rogue
Being married to Blake had
been an amazing adventure for Maxine. Brilliant,
charismatic, and wholly unpredictable, Blake Williams made
millions and grabbed headlines as a dot-com entrepreneur.
His only shortcoming was as a husband—first his work and
then his never-ending quest for fun kept him constantly on
the move, far away from Maxine and his family. For five
years Blake and Maxine have worked out an odd but amicable
divorce, with friendly though infrequent visits, a yacht he
lends her every summer, and three children they both adore.
Blake enjoys his globe-trotting lifestyle—dating a
succession of beautiful, famous, and very young women—while
Maxine raises their kids in Manhattan and pursues her
passion, working as a psychiatrist, a world-renowned expert
on childhood trauma and adolescent suicide. Then everything
changes….
For Maxine it starts when she falls in love
with Dr. Charles West, a man who is everything Blake is
not—mature, grounded, and present. For Blake it begins when
a devastating earthquake strikes near one of his palatial
foreign homes and he sees hundreds of orphaned children in
need of shelter. Now Blake wants Maxine in his life again—as
a partner in a humanitarian project that could change
countless lives. For Maxine the choice is clear. But Blake’s
sudden transformation—from carefree playboy to
compassionate, responsible grown-up—raises questions
she’s never managed to answer . . . and some she’s afraid to
ask. After all, Maxine is on the cusp of a new life, about
to marry Charles, and almost certain that Blake Williams,
aka the Rogue, is a man capable of doing anything—except
change….
An unforgettable story of two people
pursuing happiness from opposite directions, Rogue is
a journey of choices and the amazing opportunities that come
together—just when life seems to have been successfully
rearranged at last.
