Have I mentioned I'm a huge fan of Deveraux, Remembrance and
A Knight in Shining Armor stand out as two of my favorites.
Deveraux always infuses her stories with a touch of magic --
sometimes taking us on a voyage back in time or as in this
story to a place that seems lost in time -- magical. If you
are looking for a romance replete with wit, passion, a bit
of fairy dust then you need look no further than MIDNIGHT IN
THE MORNING.
Falling in love should be a happy time full of wonder and
passion; Tristan and Jecca have that in spades. Tristan has
held a vision of a younger Jecca in his heart and mind for
many years, wondering how their one, rather inauspicious,
meeting so affected him that no one could ever measure up.
His dates were inevitably disappointing as one after another
woman seemed more interested in his being a rather gorgeous
doctor than Tristan the man. And he was so much more. His
cousin Kim, Jecca's good friend, was always on his case
about not working harder to develop relationships. But not
until Jecca comes to Edilean for a long summer visit does
Tristan begin to see what Kim meant -- and he is not about
to make that mistake again. Tristan is out to
make headway with Jecca in the short time he has. Problem is
Jecca's long time fascination with Tristan's brother Reed.
He is sure Reed is the wrong man and he is absolutely the
right one considering the sparks between himself and Jecca.
But the biggest challenge is how to bridge a rather
formidable roadblock in their relationship -- distance.
Tristan's home is Edilean and Jecca's is a big city girl and
even though she has to honestly acknowledge her growing
feelings for Tristan -- her first consideration is her
inauspicious art career.
Tristan uses all his imagination to keep Jecca's mind, body
and heart focused on him by immersing her in an almost
magical romantic liaison with a single goal to ultimately
realize that what they have together is too special to
ignore. And when you have something so unique there has to
be a way to make it work. Edilean is filled with wonderful
people who open their arms and hearts to newcomer Jecca. And
Jecca is learning that leaving Edilean and Tristan will
certainly break her heart but if she doesn't she will never
know whether she has any real talent as an artist. It's
going to take courage to decide where her future lies and if
there is one thing we learn about Jecca she's a gutsy lady
equally at home with paints and an easel and repairing a
chainsaw. Tristan is up to the challenge even if means
conquering seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
Jecca Layton is thrilled to be spending the entire summer in Edilean. visiting her best friend, Kim, and painting the beautiful country sights. But the vistas and quaint buildings aren't the only things that catch Jecca's eye. When she sees Kim's cousin, Dr. Tristan Aldredge, for the first time since she was a teenager, sparks fly.
