Widow and the Wa

I'm not a huge Janet Dailey fan, but I enjoyed this title so much I read it twice, thus I give it five stars. Description from the book back cover: He both attracted and intimidated her. When they first met, Elizabeth had thought Jed Carrel insulting and arrogant - though she couldn't ignore the turbulent emotions his kiss had aroused. But she had been only seventeen, and about to marry his brother, Jeremy. Then Jed set off to live his own life abroad. Elizabeth was a mature woman now, and a widow. And Jed had unexpectedly returned. Why? "As a woman-" Jed's voice was caressing - "you're even more desirable than you were as a girl." This is the Ohio novel in Janet Dailey's Americana series - a romantic tour of America through stories set in each of the fifty states.
