The Gift Horse

by Pamela J. Dodd

If Angela Donalson— a young woman, orphaned, living in poverty, with brains and ambition— were granted three wishes, she would want wealth, an education, and a family. Marc Avery has always had everything he ever wanted. Now he wants a girl to become his companion, a girl no one will miss. When, in a bizarre twist of fate, Angie is abducted and held at Avery’s remote Tennessee estate, she initially tries to thwart her captors. Unable to gain her freedom, Angie finds herself trading her morals to meet the challenges presented to her each day. As she comes to know the man behind her abduction, and comes to recognize that he can provide her with more than she ever dreamed possible, Angie faces dilemmas which will determine not only how she lives, but if she lives at all. Pamela J. Dodd takes her readers for a wild ride on The Gift Horse.
