Stronghold

All for Love: Book Three Are you surprised that strength is drawn to strength? For the last six years, the gypsy healer Raul has lived a life he never dreamed possible. Gerrard Hawkins has stood at his side, his love a source of silent strength like nothing Raul has ever known. When a letter from Gerrard s estranged father forces them in separate directions Gerrard back to England to make peace with his family and Raul to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer for his annual pilgrimage Raul expects to suffer for their parting, but he holds on to their plans to meet again in France when Gerrard has satisfied his father s demands. Gerrard left England never expecting to return, especially after he pledged his life and love to Raul. Yet he cannot dismiss his father s offer of peace without some acknowledgment. When he arrives in England to find tragedy, his sense of duty toward his family s tenants wars with his promises to Raul. As tensions mount and illness spreads in France, Raul stands as a bastion of hope, but his strength is not limitless. Gerrard is the rock he leans on, and without that strength, Gerrard s arrival in France may come too late.
