Touch of fire

by Cathy Gillen Thacker

Each burning caress became a touch of fire... Kate Ryker considered her two-year-old marriage over. Her husband Alex had taken a job in Saudi Arabia and Kate refused to move with him. She had her own life to live-as founder, publisher, and editor of Missouri Woman magazine. Kate took control of her situation and filed for divorce, and when seven months passed without any word from Alex, she thought her actions were final. But Alex did not. He returned to Missouri with the legal papers shredded. He would not allow Kate to destroy the sacred commitment of marriage--at least not without getting something from her in return!
