Bien sûr, tout le monde ignore qu’ils ont eu une aventure autrefois, et qu’elle a refusé de l’épouser… La situation est bien dramatique : en refusant, elle s’expose à un renvoi.

Description en VO :
POLITICS WAS NO LONGER A PART OF HER LIFE
The assassination of her governor father and the victimization of her mother convinced
Anna Kay Elliott that she wanted nothing more to do with ambitious politicians.
But when Robbin North's election campaign became her executive responsibility, memories of her college love for him were impossible to forget.
In their bid to secure Robbin's election, candidate and media manager found old fires intensely revived. Yet if Robbin won the vote, he would lose Anna Kay, for she refused to become a senator's wife--even though she loved him more passionately than ever...
Pourquoi a-t-elle perdu la tête ? La nuit de la mort de son mari, Diane, désespérée, s’est abandonnée dans les bras d’un inconnu qui lui sauvé la vie. Le lendemain, dévorée de honte, elle s’enfuit de l’hôtel, en espérant ne plus jamais le revoir. Mais sa prière ne sera pas exaucée : Jim Forbes, son sauveteur, va vite retrouver la trace de celle qu’il a surnommée sa “déesse de la lune”…

Description en VO :
WHAT SHE DIDN'T NEED WAS A "RELATIONSHIP"
Diane Armstrong would never forget the terror of having to land a small aircraft after her husband suffered a fatal heart attack at the controls. Nor would she forget her wanton reactions to the kindness of the man who helped save her life.
Always well-bred, she was deeply distressed by her behavior with Jim Forbes. But she determined to rebuild her shattered life without the help or comfort of the San Francisco executive with the alluring Southern drawl.
This self-sufficiency was dictated by her pride. But Jim Forties demanded more of her soul than she had, ever put to the test before.
C'est l'affolement à Haiwaï. Les vieux volcans se sont réveillés, déversant dans des grondements des coulées de lave incandescente qui avancent, telles des tentacules géantes, sur le paysage dévasté. Holly, vulcanologue de métier, est au coeur des événements. Dans une tentative pour endiguer l'éruption, elle rencontre Lorne Bryant, un riche planteur local. Pour lui, c'est le coup de foudre, pour la jeune femme de la haine immédiate, violente. Comment pourrait-elle en effet être attirée par celui qui a provoqué la mort de son fiancé, huit ans auparavant, qu'elle pleure encore ?

Description en VO :
HER NAME MEANT NOTHING TO HIM BUT...
A rift eruption was threatening Kapoiki, and volcanologist Holly Ingram knew it was her duty to warn Lorne Bryant.
As a major plantation owner, Lorne felt great responsibility for his employees' safety. His leadership qualities attracted Holly, but she resented his dictatorial manner. Hadn't she been victimized by his decisions in the past?
Before Holly could admit her feelings she needed answers--to questions that had burned for eight long years. Lorne had played freely with people's lives, and she'd have to take care that he didn't tamper with hers ... again.
