The Right Woman

The Right Woman
Linda Warren

Sarah Welch didn't know she had a twin until five years ago, when a string of events led her through the seedy underbelly of Dallas to the family she didn't know she had.Sarah has spent those five years trying to forget what she went through - forget the man who was gunned down, the criminal she helped put behind bars and the cop who saved her life. Now Sarah is in danger once again. And while this time she's able to confide her fears to her twin sister, there's only one person who can truly help her - Daniel Garrett, the cop who never stopped loving her.Working by Daniel's side to stop a killer, Sarah begins to accept Daniel as part of her past. And part of her future…

“I thought I would love Greg forever, but…”

“But what?” Daniel asked.

“But now I get angry. He knew how dangerous his mission was and he still let me go along. I shouldn’t have been there.”

“No, you shouldn’t have.”

Again Sarah was surprised she was telling Daniel this. She hadn’t even told Serena. “I’m not blameless, though. I can be persuasive sometimes, and Greg had a hard time saying no to me.”

“I can imagine. I get angry at him, too, for taking you into that situation. He must have been so blind in love that he ignored the dangers.”

“That’s just it,” she said. “If he really loved me, why would he do that?”

Daniel turned from the window. “I don’t have an answer for you.” All Daniel knew was that he would never expose her to that kind of danger—even if it meant he’d never see her again for the rest of his life.

Dear Reader,

For those of you who have written and e-mailed me to ask about Sarah’s story, this is it. Sarah was first introduced in The Wrong Woman (Harlequin Superromance #1125) as the identical twin of Serena.

Separated at birth, the sisters met for the first time when they were thirty-one years old. Their personalities were very different—Serena was sweet and outgoing while Sarah was quiet and reserved. It took time for me to plot Sarah’s life, but once I started the story quickly took shape. Sarah struggles to overcome her turbulent past and has to adjust to having a real family and an identical sister. Finding the perfect man for her wasn’t easy, but one man kept coming back into her life—Daniel Garrett. But there was one problem—Sarah didn’t like Daniel. So the tug of emotions began and Sarah’s story became more emotional than I’d planned.

I’ve never wanted two characters to find happiness as much as Sarah and Daniel. As you read their story I hope you will feel the same.

Warmly,

Linda Warren
