Seven Days to Tell You

After three years, her missing husband has returned-but can she ever trust him again?

A bereavement, I called it. A death without a body, a coffin, a note, or a reason. But what do I call it now, now that you've come back?

When Kate marries Marc, a wild, sexy Frenchman she meets on holiday, everyone is stunned. But Marc proves to be an adoring and attentive husband-until the morning he goes out and doesn't come back.

After three years searching for him, Kate tries to start again without the man she just can't stop loving. Then one day, she wakes up with Marc asleep in her bed. He asks for seven days to prove his love-at the end of it, Kate must make a choice.

Can she ever forget, forgive and, most of all, love again?
