When Venus Fell

Home is wherever the heart leads....The ties that bind us--to our families, to our pasts--are at the heart of this deeply engrossing story.  Venus Arinelli saw her future as a concert pianist shattered when her fathers life ended in disgrace.  Now Venus plays in cocktail lounges, sporting her survival skills like a suit of armor.  When a stranger emerges from her parents long-ago past with an offer too good to refuse, Venus suspicions flare up.But Gib Cameron has a special mission.  He represents the Camerons of Tennessee--a family as rooted in American history and Southern soil as Venus is notorious and fly-by-night.  Yet the Camerons, survivors of tragedy, need Venus for reasons that have to do with honor and loyalty and an almost mystical bond to their shared past.
