Every Time I Love You


Heather Graham - 1988
    Gayle Norman seemed to avoid commitment at all costs, always finding fault with the men who came into her life. Then she met Brent McCauley and everything changed. The brilliant artist broke through her barriers and they fell in love over night and married within a month's time. It was all so right...so perfect...until she sensed flashes of danger and darkness that she couldn't explain, and she feared that her perfect love was fatally flawed. COULD THERE BE A TRAGIC HISTORY TYING THEM TOGETHER AND TEARING THEM APART... Katrina Seymour wanted to hate Percy Ainsworth from the first moment she saw him. The handsome rebel stood for all her Tory family fought against during this time of Revolutionary upheaval, but he'd seduced her and stolen her heart before she knew it. Theirs was a love surrounded by treachery and betrayal and the only thing certain was that it would cry out throughout time for truth and fulfillment. Every Time I Love You was written in 1988. At the time, it was a different kind of time travel, drawing upon history as well as what was then present day. Today, it is something of a historical piece-returning to that not-so-distant day when not everyone had a cell phone, when cafes and restaurants might still be glazed in a smoky mist, and when social media was just a bud in the minds of a youth about to spring forward and create the true information age. While society may change every decade, people don't. Throughout history we are driven by our need to know our place in the world-and by the love we bear those around us, parents, children, brothers, sisters, friends-and the one person we hope we find who is the true love of our lives, the one who makes everything else in life right. My personal love for history remains the same. When this book was written, it was one of the few of its kind published, a forbearer, I like to think, for much of the turn fiction took in later years. I like to believe that my people have withstood the passage of time. And I truly hope you'll agree. Here, for the first time in twenty-five years, is Every Time I Love You. Thank you! Heather Graham
