This series, The Carlyle Women, gets better with each book." A child of the sixties, Leigh Sinclair knows exactly what she wants to be a journalist and tell the truth no matter the cost. But her mother, Bette, seems determined to hold her back. Leigh suspects there's a reason behind her mother's overprotectiveness, a secret that has built a wall between them for years. When Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. announces the March on Washington in 1963, Leigh's world and heart are forever changed. From the Civil Rights movement to the Cold War and the Vietnam conflict, she reports from the front lines of a turbulent era that reshapes America and challenges every belief she holds. Yet falling for the wrong man leaves Leigh wary of love and facing consequences she never envisioned. Determined to rebuild her career, she pursues a major investigative story with the help of NYPD detective Nate Gallagher. He admires her courage, even as her defiance tests his patience and his heart. Then one day the worst Leigh could imagine happens and Nate is the only one who can help her. Will Nate be able to make this come right for her? And in the end will her frozen heart melt so she'll let him love her?"-- Provided by publisher.
