Dear Reader,

As the title of this book implies, this is a love story about honor, and I examined my own beliefs about honor as I wrote it. I admire Brooke, the heroine of this story, for her drive, ambition and uncomplicated ideal for her life—work hard, achieve, never give up. And then she meets Jeremy, our hero, whose dilemma comes when he must risk a successful future that directly confronts a moral question from his past. His decision isn’t an easy one: pursue fame and security or lose everything he has worked for. As the two characters in this book fall in love, they realize their ideas of right and wrong, self-gratification and self-sacrifice must be examined.

A weighty plot? To be sure it is, especially when innocent children and a lost relative become intertwined with the main characters’ attempts to do the right thing. I hope you enjoy this journey of self-discovery. I’d love to hear your thoughts. You can contact me at cynthoma@aol.com.

Thanks for reading.
