An artist in glass and light, Angel has loved with passion and fire - and learned the true depths of sadness when what she loved was taken from her. When she first meets Miles Hawkins - a solitary, distant man - their mutual mistrust seems insurmountable. Hawk has never known what Angel has freely enjoyed, having experienced only cruelty and betrayal from the women in his life. But Angel is willing to risk everything that proud, silent Hawk cannot, as she strives to bring truth and love to a tormented soul who believes in neither. Yet giving her heart again could be a gamble with stakes too high and too painful for her to endure - for she fears that, by loving Hawk, she will surely lose him.
Sexual tension abounds as Angel, the survivor of a car wreck that took the life of her fiancé and parents, and Hawk, an entrepreneur and woman hater, circle each other, come together, and then part, perhaps forever. All this takes place in the Pacific Northwest, with scenes on the water that are as colorful as the romance. Laural Merlington gives Hawk a male huskiness and Angel vulnerability and determination. Conversations are interrupted by Lowell's continual need to inform us just what each character is thinking, but Merlington still manages to keep fanning the sparks. Those who like Lowell's stories will want to listen in on this 1985 novel -- and learn about stained-glass-making, as well. J.G.B. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
