Rich and powerful Chase Severin had returned for revenge on the town that had once cast him out-and the woman who had scorned him. Years ago, he and heiress Kate Beltrane had scandalized everyone with their forbidden romance-until Kate had betrayed him, tattering her own reputation and leaving Chase to a bitter fate. Or so he thought....Kate's shock at seeing Chase again gave way to panic as he outlayed his plans to take down what was left of her once-proud legacy. But there were things Chase didn't know...things that might, with a little help from the mysterious music box he'd received from an old Gypsy woman, release the passion sleeping in both their shattered hearts.
