Paige, a successful sculpture who was raised in a loving two parent home meets Jesse Dallas, a successful film editor who was raised fatherless and by a prostitute mother who resented him. Jesse made it known when they meet that their relationship was only about sex.
Paige falls in love but respects Jesse’s fear of relationship and family. Willing to accept his leaving when he grows tired of the sex, she stops using birth control; Paige was perfectly happy to raise their child without him.
After spending months of trying to get Paige out of his system and failing to, Jesse walks back into Paige’s life. He becomes enraged when he learns she’s pregnant. Jesse treats Paige badly. Fed up, Paige walks out on Jesse. Jesse goes frantic in fear that he’ll never see Paige again looks for her. When he doesn’t find her he returns to her home. He is about to call her parents when the police tells him that Paige has been in an automobile accident.
Secret of The Stone is a very good read.
