A True Romance

Billie Callahan is an actress that is taking a little time to see the sights around Zalandan. Unfortunately she is caught up in a sandstorm but before that could become a total tragedy she is protected by a very poetic and rather handsome man. When the storm is over she finds herself in a palace as the guest of David Bradford. She is charmed by him and drawn to him but there is one problem. David believes in happy endings and forever kind of love. Billie doesn't believe in either. And yet she is finding herself falling for David and all of his mysterious romantic ways. David manages to arrange it so Billie can't leave the country, wanting a chance to woo and win the heart of the woman that has spoken to his heart. He may have a childlike naïveté with the way he looks at the world due to his past experiences, but this doesn't lessen the true and amazing feelings he has for Billie. Will he be able to show Billie that love is a gift and not something to flee? This is a re-issue of one of Ms. Johansen's classic romances. This is a perfect example of how opposites can and do attract. David and Billie are charming characters and their love story will make the reader sigh with pleasure. This is one title you will want to add to your "must read list."

Another wonderful tale set in Sedikhan!

A heart-warming and beautiful story of love, goodness, kindness and strength--all the best in what it means to be 'human'. This one's a keeper!

Fabulous! This one raised a lot of goosebumps!

An incredibly touching tale of two very special people who deserve a happy ending. It shows the best there is in being human. While in college, David Bradford experimented with some mind-expansion drugs that left him in a state of mental retardation--a child in a man's body. Years later, despite his regained mental prowess, he retains a childlike honesty, simplicity and gentleness that arouses a fierce protectiveness in the people around him. Beloved by everyone in the Casbah of Zalandan, Lisan's every wish is fulfilled. When he rescues Bille Calllahan from a desert sandstorm, he knows he's found his own true love. There's just one problem: orphan- brat Billie doesn't believe in forever. The beautiful sequel to "Capture the Rainbow" and "The Trustworthy Redhead."
