About this ebook
Wounded army officer Luke Marino was sent home, his career, his spirit shattered.
Now he wanted only to be left alone, refusing even the physical therapy he needed. Confined to a wheelchair in his mother's quiet house, he turned away church casseroles and old friends, convinced his active life had reached an agonizing end.
But Mary Kate Flanagan Donnelly, a widow with two children to raise on her own, needed Luke's case to prove herself as a capable therapist. Despite the revival of feelings she thought dormant since their high school romance, she was determined to help the stubborn hero and keep matters strictly business....
Facing his bitter anger in his mother's quiet house, she refused to back away from the man she once adored. Setting up parallel bars and exercise mats in his dining room, she pushed him to fight for every inch of recovery. Yet as she coaxed him through each painful session, keeping her heart uninvolved grew harder by the day.
