About the book

Lucas Farraday kept trying to pick Sara up

He was quite blatant about it, too. Sara had gone to South America in search of her missing stepmother and encountered Lucas instead.

As far as she could see he was a penniless drifter. A man with charm, but no ambition; brains, but no inclination to use them. And he was so persistent!

Even telling him she had a fiance didn't deter him. He seemed to know exactly what he wanted from Sara--and was frighteningly determined to get it.
