At sixteen, Tessa gave her virginity to Cord Redigo. She'd loved him, or thought she had, until he broke her heart.
For the past thirteen years, she has despised him. Now he's walked back into her life, bent on destroying her livelihood! And he doesn't even remember her!
All too soon Tessa realizes that deep inside she's still that sixteen-year-old, lovesick schoolgirl. No matter how desperately she tries to hate Cord, he draws her cunningly into his arms and his bed. Tess knows that small passions die with absence, but grand passions only grow larger. To her regret, her passion for Cord is of the deepest kind. Will that tragic truth brand her as the grandest fool of all?
