For seven years, she stayed hidden, working at the local takeaway shop. She found a place that welcomed and accepted her.
It came the day when the dwellers of the desert needed rain, and they called on tough and dangerous Declan 'Thunder' McCloud. With Declan unable to release his thunderstorms, he searches for an answer. 
He finds the woman named Summer Rae, which only solves one of his problems. The girl of sunshine and bright had met Declan many times since her sixteenth birthday.
To find each other again was only the first step on a journey of discovery for them both. Can tough, hard Declan ever find a soft spot for such a ray of sunshine as Summer?
