Lacey never forgot the hurt and betrayal she once suffered at Giles's grand family home of Sea Oaks, but a curious and compelling summons from Elise prompts her return. <p/> Once Lacey arrives, she realizes how little has changed. Giles is still the handsome charmer she fell in love with, and Elise is still the wily seductress whose succession of lovers has risked a family scandal. But when a series of anonymous harmless pranks turns threatening, Lacey must finally confront the past--and a decade-old secret from one haunting summer at Sea Oaks. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for Phyllis A.
