About the book
Love was inevitable--and impossible!
After her broken engagement Jane had vowed never to love again. It was a promise she found easy to keep--until she met Adam Francis.
Even though the dynamic entrepreneur assured her she wasn't his type, something told her to be wary of this fascinating stranger.
For Adam combined the strength and prowess of an athlete with the rapier-sharp wit of an intellectual, and Jane found the blend devastating. Especially when she learned he wanted her after all!
