About the book
Jessica had tried hard to play down her attractiveness at work. She wasn't interested in office affairs, or so she thought until company boss Bruno Can personally assigned her to work closely with him on a major lawsuit....
Jessica knew she'd won Bruno's professional respect. She also sensed that he saw beyond her neat suits and cool manner--both of which Jessica was forced to abandon on a Caribbean business trip.... Steamy, sensual nights followed, but was it more than an affair? The only verdict Jessica could be certain of was that she was now expecting her boss's baby!
She's sexy, successful...and PREGNANT!
