About the book

Lori Hanson has come to Whitehorn to start over—not to fall head over heels in love with her boss. For she knew better than to risk her heart—her life—on another man. Besides, Josh Anderson is too attractive, too kind...and too dangerous. Kind, because he cares about her. Dangerous, because he makes her want to care about him.

Josh's alluring new receptionist has secrets and fears she can’t let go of, and all Josh wants is to hold her in his arms and make everything better. Okay, so that isn’t all he wants. Lori's presence makes it all but impossible to work—except to count the ways to capture her heart...
