Produktbeschreibungen
Ever since she was a young girl, on the edge of puberty, Faith Devlin has worshiped stunning, sophisticated Gray Rouillard. They couldn't be more different. Gray's father practically owns Prescott, in her girlish dreams, Gray is a knight in shining armor. Until the night he throws Faith and her dirt-poor family out into the streets. It seems Gray's father, a notorious womanizer has finally gone over the edge. He's left his family, disappearing into the night with one of his paramours: Faith's no good mother. When Gray learns that his father's deceit has almost cost his sister her life, he takes out his rage on Faith's motherless family, evicting them from Rouillard land in the middle of the night. In the years since her family was driven from town, Faith has climbed the ladder to success. And now it's time to come home. Home to find out what really happened the night her mother disappeared with Gray Rouillard's father. Once he learns she's back in Prescott, Gray does everything in his power to drive her out of town again. Not only is Faith a hated Devlin, but she's the spitting image of her whore of a mother. The woman who stole his father and drove his young sister to the brink of suicide. But neither Gray nor Faith realized that the attraction Faith carried for Gray, the attraction she was sure had died that night so many years ago, would bloom into a wild, passionate yearning. Much as he hates her family, Gray can't help but care about Faith. And when someone in town starts threatening her, Gray finds himself wanting to protect her. As Faith and Gray struggle to overcome the past, someone in Prescott plans to see that they never unravel the mystery. Powerful characters, a powerful setting, and an intriguing mystery. After the Night has it all! Linda Howard weaves a spell as dark as a moon less night in the bayous! Intense romance and mounting tension will keep you up late to finish this one!Annette Carney -- Copyright © 1994-97 Literary Times, Inc. All rights reserved

Ever since she was a girl, Faith Devlin had worshiped stunning, sophisticated Gray Rouillard. They could not be more different. Gray's father practically owns the small town of Prescott, and in her young girl's dreams, Gray is a knight in shining armor. That hero's image is shattered in one shattering night that is forever to change the lives of both Gray and Faith. He was all things good, bright and wonderful - until the night he throws Faith and her dirt-poor family out into the streets. Gray's father, a notorious womanizer has finally gone over the edge and left his family, disappearing into the night with his lover - none other than Faith's mother. When Gray discovers this, he takes out his uncontrollable rage upon Faith's and the rest of her family, evicting them from Rouillard land in the middle of the night.
It was a memory that was to form the rest of Faith's life. Now she lives for only one reason, to return to Prescott and finally solved what happened to Gray's father and her mother. No longer the small town girl from a family of white trash, Faith has worked very hard to make something of herself. And the time has finally come for Faith to go home. Faith did not expect Prescott to welcome her back with open arms, and she is not disappointed. Faith is the living image of her mother and in a small town people only remember all too well her mother destroyed the Rouillard marriage. But she is mildly surprised to the lengths people will go to please the now powerful Gray. She is asked to leave a motel, the police harass her, and the grocery store owner refused to even sell her groceries. However, this Faith is not the little trusting girl that could not defend herself and her family, and nothing and no one, not even the sexy Gray Rouillard, will stop her from finding out what really happened that night their parents vanished.
Only she was not prepared for Gray himself. Nor the fact that, though Gray hates her family and wants her gone from the town, Gray is making it clear her wants Faith, and he will break any rules to achieve his aim.
However,there is someone else in town very frightened by Faith's return. When someone starts threatening Faith, Gray finds himself wanting to protect her, pulling him into questioning just what did happened that night.
Vivid,and gripping characters, a powerful setting, and an intriguing mystery. Howard weaves a spell like none other.

Linda Howard has a grasp on romance like none other I've read. This book kept me captivated from start to finish. She carries the reader through a myriad of emotions from spine-tingling suspense to heartbreaking sadness, and joy! Gray and Faith are so perfect as hero and heroine, and Howard knows how to bring her characters personally to the reader. She gives us the closest thing to a "real" Gray we'll ever have. I'm in love with love all ove again. Linda Howard is topps!

I was sitting in an airport in Miami on an extended layover when I decided I needed something to read. I'm not sure what I expected when I started this book, but this wasn't it. I had never read a Linda Howard book before but that back cover looked interesting, so why not? Well, I have become a very big fan of Ms. Howard and read everything she writes now. From the very first pages, I was hooked. She created a world so very different from any community I have ever seen.(I mean, how many of us come from home towns that are controlled by one family?) I also felt Faith's humiliation, fear and anger at being a "Devlin". The sparks fly and the story builds and I couldn't put the book down. You could see them fighting the fire with sharp tongues but at the same time you can see the tenderness they feel for each other. My only complaint was how fast the book ended. The last chapter was funny and sweet, but it felt rushed. I really wanted some of the things that weren't said, said. With Gray's "playboy" history, I personally would of wanted something more then I-love-you-let's-have-a-baby-get-married rush. Maybe it's just me, but a final chapter where he tells her why he loves her and that its more then just lust and that he won't treat their marriage like his father treated his marriage would have made it seem more "forever".

Loved This Book!
I thought the book was great! I have read and re-read it! I love Gray and Faith. The "I love you against my Will" type of electricity is wonderful.
