Carroll Laker knows she's found the marrying kind in Alan
Smith. The pediatrician is everything a woman could want in
a husband-he's kind, dependable, patient. Maybe too patient:
even though they spend Saturday mornings house-hunting,
they've yet to spend a night in bed together. And suddenly
Carroll starts fantasizing about what it would be like to be
wildly, wantonly, passionately in love...
Alan has wanted to marry Carroll since the moment he met
her. When he senses he's on the verge of losing her, he
decides it's time to loosen up. If Carroll needs excitement
and seduction, that's exactly what he'll give her. From
orchids and exotic foods to midnight canoe rides and dancing
till dawn, Alan will do anything to sweep Carroll off her
feet and into his bed.
At first, Carroll is delighted by the romantic gestures. But
she can't help but wonder: Will the new Alan love her
forever the way the old Alan would have?
