The Hellion

A classic romance from New York Times bestselling author LaVyrle Spencer.

The image of elegance, social standing, and beauty, Rachel has barely recovered from her husband’s death when the wildest, most passionate flame of her youth steps back into her life. The all-time hell-raiser of Russellville, Alabama, Tommy Lee has had three marriages behind him and a string of fast cars and women. The townsfolk say he’ll never change, but Rachel knows differently.
 
Once, they were high school sweethearts, too young and reckless to comprehend the consequences of their love. Now, 24 years later, Tommy Lee can still excite Rachel like no other man. Maybe this time they can make it work in spite of his wild reputation, the local gossip, and Rachel’s questioning heart.LaVyrle Spencer is a contemporary and historical romance novelist who has written twelve New York Times bestsellers. Whether set in the Old West or in present day suburban Minnesota, a Spencer novel means seeing love in a new light and meeting characters so real it's all you can do not to climb into the pages yourself. Several of Spencer's books have been made into movies (Publishers Weekly called one of her television deals "precedent-setting") and in 1988 she was inducted into the Romance Writers of America Hall of Fame. She lives with her husband, Dan, in North Oaks, Minnesota.
