She Was Haunted by the Sound of Jonah's Voice
Ariel Denham is a rising young cosmetic surgeon forced by circumstances to take a job at the Fountainhead Foundation. The resources there are first rate, but it's a very unusual place. For starters, there's the all-powerful head of the place whom Ariel has never met, the bizarre curfew for all staff and patients, and the single perfect rose that appears on her desk daily-without a note.
But strangest of all is the man who waits for Ariel each night on her forbidden walks through the dark grounds, a man who refuses to step out from the shadows, but whose sensual presence lingers in her heart all through the day ... Jonah.
