About the book
Wanted: Prince Charming for damsel in distress
Melanie was in distress all right! But the last thing she wanted was a prince--or any man for that matter--to come riding to her rescue. She'd had it with the opposite sex--she wanted only to disappear, to retreat to a peaceful haven to mend her broken heart. Until she met Luke Chalmers, whose sensual intrusion in her life was anything but peaceful.
His stolen kisses left her flustered, and his rakish grin sent her heart racing. But a disastrous engagement to a man who had deceived her left Melanie unwilling to trust another man, any man, so quickly. Especially one who left so many questions about himself unanswered...
