Being married to Blake had been an amazing adventure for Maxine. Brilliant,charismatic, and wholly unpredictable, Blake Williams made millions and grabbed
headlines as a dot-com entrepreneur. His only shortcoming was as a husband -first his work, and then his never-ending quest for fun kept him constantly on
the move, far away from Maxine and his family. For five years, Blake and Maxinehave worked out an odd but amicable divorce, with friendly though infrequent
visits, a yacht he lends her every summer, and three children they both adore.Blake enjoys his globe-trotting lifestyle - dating a succession of beautiful,
famous, and very young women - while Maxine raises their kids in Manhattan andpursues her passion, working as a psychiatrist, a world-renowned expert on
childhood trauma and adolescent suicide. Then everything changes....

For Maxine, it starts when she falls in love with Dr. Charles West, a man whois everything Blake is not - mature, grounded, and present. For Blake, it begins
when a devastating earthquake strikes near one of his palatial foreign homes,and he sees hundreds of orphaned children in need of shelter. Now, Blake wants
Maxine in his life again - as a partner in a humanitarian project that could change countless lives. For Maxine, the choice is clear. But
Blake's sudden transformation - from carefree playboy to compassionate, responsible grown-up - raises questions she's never managed to answer...and some
she's afraid to ask. After all, Maxine is on the cusp of a new life, about to marry Charles, and almost certain that Blake Williams, a.k.a. the Rogue, is a man
capable of doing anything - except change....An unforgettable story of two people pursuing happiness from opposite directions, Rogue is a journey of choices and the amazing opportunities that come together - just when life seems to have been successfully rearranged at last.
