Novel by Janice Graham, published by Putnam in 1998. It is Graham's debut novel, and is set in the Flint Hills of Kansas. The story revolves around Ethan, a lawyer and rancher, who falls in love with Annette, whilst he is engaged to another woman. The feeling expressed through the book are deeply spiritual, and each character has to deal with his or her own jealousy, contempt, and search for love.

Just when Ethan has decided which woman he is going to choose, tragedy strikes - tearing one of them out of his life and his heart forever... or does it?

This was an alright book, IMHO. A little forced in places, but well paced and with interesting enough characters. Gets a tad religious (of the catholic variety) in places, just so you know.
