Splendors of Love

By John Burton Thompson

Ronald Summerville retreats to rural Mississippi to forget a war that broke him and a woman who betrayed him. Instead, he meets Ferris Macklin-young, stunning, and starved for affection in a house where tenderness is forbidden. Her innocence is mixed with a disarming boldness, her curiosity with a hunger she barely understands. From the moment Ronald sees her, desire becomes impossible to ignore.

Ferris's beauty-and the way she responds to him-draws attention from everyone around her: a domineering father, a volatile suitor from her past, and men eager to shape her future to their liking. Ronald is pulled into the center of that tension, where jealousy, longing, and buried violence collide.

As their attraction deepens into something fierce and consuming, Ronald must decide whether he can give Ferris the safety and passion she craves-or whether loving her will cost him the fragile stability he's only beginning to reclaim.
