My Love Memoirs #12

When Corey's father remarries and then passes away, she finds herself trapped on the family ranch under the cruel control of her stepmother and stepsister Nancy, who've convinced everyone—including the kind foreman Dallas Morgan—that Corey is mentally unstable. As Nancy leaves for school and Dallas begins to see Corey differently, her stepmother grows desperate to keep them apart, even obtaining a doctor's affidavit declaring Corey insane and threatening to have her institutionalized if she defies her. Caught between her love for Dallas and the danger closing in around her, Corey must find a way to prove her sanity and reclaim her life before her stepmother's lies destroy everything.

Jean Adams dreams of escaping her dreary small-town life as a department store salesgirl, and when the sophisticated photographer Charles Grendon invites her to his studio, she eagerly pursues the glamorous romance she's always craved—even as her devoted childhood friend Danny Barton warns her that Grendon has a sinister reputation. As Jean becomes swept up in nights at theaters and fancy restaurants, she'll discover that her hunger for excitement may come at a far steeper price than she imagined.
