The Summary:

Once upon a time, Gigi Rowland fell madly in love with Camden Saybrook.

She vowed to do everything in her power to have him, by whatever means necessary. And so she did? But her success came at a heavy price.

Ten years later, a wonderful man has just proposed to her. Nothing stood in the way of her happiness, except the man she had married and lost…

I couldn’t find a cover yet or a date other than Fall 2007. I am looking though! There is a great excerpt you can find here. Awesome writing, great hook and really has a set up that reminds me of The Marriage Bed. I really wanted to read that book.

I had great hope for that book. And was greatly disappointed in it. So I find myself getting all giddy this one will be grand. I want!
