One Red Rose
Adam Clarborne has always put great stock in the power of books. As an escaped
slave--and a wanted man--reading has been his only ticket to the wonders of distant
lands. Adam is content with his life as a confirmed bachelor, which is why his Mama
Rose has summoned the irresistible Genevieve Delacroix to Montana. Also a former
slave, Genevieve shares his dream of seeing the world, but she arrives to find Adam
unfailingly polite...and just as distant. Undaunted, Genevieve determines to teach
Adam what he'll never learn from a book--that true freedom only comes when you open
your heart.
