Making a Difference: McConn Family (McConn Family Saga)

By Barbara Hunter

Rayne Taylor has just had a Monday from hell. The whole day has been a disaster, and top it off, when she leaves work that night, she finds that she left her lights on that morning and her car is dead. More than anyone should have to put up with in one day, but it appears that fate is not quite done with her. As she gets out of the car, she is attacked by a hulking teenager who forces her back into the car at knife point with rape clearly on his mind. With a well-placed knee to his groin, Rayne escapes and runs into the first lighted building she sees. It happens to be Cord McConn's law office. When her attacker follows Rayne into the office, he takes one look at Cord and decides he is not going to win a fight with someone bigger, older, and very possibly tougher than he is. He heads out with Cord on his heels, but manages to lose the older man in an alley. Cord and Rayne, thrown together by circumstance, are now nurturing their budding relationship, finding they have a great deal in common. Their attraction grows quickly and unexpectedly. Rayne's father, a very rich and powerful business mogul is used to getting what he wants. What he wants now is Rayne - and grandchildren. When Rayne had the audacity to divorce the man her father had hand-picked for her almost three years ago, her father essentially disowned her. That was fine with Rayne. She had been under her father's thumb for the first twenty years of her life, and she is very happy with the life that she has built for herself without her father's money. She has absolutely no desire to reprise her role as obedient wife and daughter, and resists her ex-husband's increasingly physical attempts to force her back into the fold. After he assaults Rayne for the second time, Cord decides to talk to her father, against her express wishes . After spending a weekend in bed with Cord, Rayne is flying high. She has found a man she loves and trusts, and whom she is sure loves her. But then, she overhears a conversation between Cord and her father, in which it Cord has has essentially told her father that she loves him, she is living with him, and he will make sure of a reconciliation. And Rayne, feeling totally betrayed, is done. Done with her ex-husband, done with her father and done with Cord. It is going to take some pretty serious convincing for her to ever trust him again. Cord, however, is a trial attorney. He is used to pleading his cases in front of an often hostile jury and he is very determined to win Rayne back.
