Maggie worked on an in-depth photo feature about Saxon but Kerry Smith did the expose. The by lines were switched and Saxon send Maggie away but not before she fell in love with him. Lisa got engaged to Randy Steel of Jarrettsville and invited Maggie to his homestead because Randy won’t set the wedding date without his step-brother’s approval. Maggie agreed to go, not knowing that Randy’s step brother was Saxon. Saxon was in an accident right after the expose, was blinded, and he had not left the house since. Saxon told Maggie that if she does not become his companion for a few weeks, he will forbid Randy and Lisa’s marriage. Maggie started driving Saxon to his plant where he solved some union problems. Saxon was having headaches and Maggie nursed him with them. Saxon told Maggie that he loved her. Saxon regained his eyesight and married Maggie in a double wedding with Lisa and Randy. Children: None, but trying after getting married. Pets: None Back of the cover Blurb: DARK SURRENDER She was cornered: Maggie Sterline’s past had caught up with her. What strange twist of fate had led her to walk unknowingly back into the lion’s den? Saxon Tremayne was a hot-blooded giant of a man. What had happened between them was a misunderstanding, but he hadn’t stopped to listen. And now he was determined to see her pay for everything. His price—that she stay in South Carolina and care for the man who found himself bitter and helpless in a world suddenly turned dark. But if Saxon’s blind wrath was unsettling, Maggie still had the stamina to stand up to him, to force him to face his world even as his angry touch grew tender, and his kisses seemed to say that her surrender would mean more—far more—than mere revenge.
