Love Wild And Fair
“It was the first time in many years that the Leslies and the Hays had gathered under one roof for Christmas through Twelfth Night.
It was a bittersweet time for Cat She knew it was unlikely she would ever be with them all again. She savored each day, and her bitterness against James Stewart increased as she realized even more fully what his lust would cost her.
