Slowly, Miranda begins to learn what drives this brooding, solitary man, todiscover the truth about his tragic past. But it will take a shockingrevelation to finally force her to face her own past and the woman she'sbecome, and to ask herself: Is it freedom she really wants…or the chance tostay with Hawk forever?
