内容简介 在线阅读本书
Laney McLeod's life changes the minute she finds herself stuck in a high-rise elevator in Manhattan. Fighting her rising panic, she relies on a handsome stranger to help overcome her claustrophobia. The man, Deke Sargent, is just as attracted to this beautiful and vulnerable woman as she is to him.When the power comes back on, Deke and Laney find themselves in a passionate embrace that soon leads to a night of love in his apartment. Shocked at her own brazenness, Laney disappears the next morning. Months later, she receives an even greater shock: Deke shows up with an astounding announcement.Unable to forget the chemistry between them, but afraid that she's just another notch on this wealthy playboy's bedpost, Laney is about to discover that her resistance to Deke hides an even deeper fear. In Words of Silk Sandra Brown displays her uncanny grasp of the struggle between doubt and desire, caution and hope -- the quiet battle that rages deep within the human heart.

As Deke helps Laney overcome her claustrophobia, the emotionally starved Laney finds love and caring. But when Laney becomes pregnant with Deke's child, Karen Ziemba has her work cut out for her, alternating emotional and tonal nuance between the confident Deke and the self-sufficient Laney. Ziemba brings passion to the characters and their fight for each other and their place in the world. M.B.K. © AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine--
