She vows that she will never accept marriage to a man who can't remain faithful. Yet when she meets a hunky Latino dynamo, she allows herself to indulge in a romantic fling -- since an arrogant alpha-male has no place in her new life. Ã'ico Guerrero doesn't believe in love. But in order to please his dying father, he travels to Grassy Key to convince his runaway betrothed to return with him to Isla de Diablo where he'll take her as his wife. When he realizes he's been seduced by the beautiful heiress, he has to make a choice. After all, passion fades and he is his father's son, so he's not sure he can promise what she desperately wants…a lifetime of love and fidelity.
