Description
Rachel I've always had a thing for Thomas Maitland, if only from afar. Call it a schoolgirl crush, an infatuation, it doesn't matter. I wanted him and him alone. Wanted him to be the one to give me my first real kiss. But it was his brother, Alexander that kissed me that night only days before I left for college, shattering my dream. Arrogant, egotistical and obnoxious. I loathed the man. But how is it that my head told me I despised him, while my body was telling me a whole other story? Ten years later, and I'm back home, living on the estate Alexander inherited. He's still the same arrogant pig he always was, and now he wants me to work for him. How can I be in such close proximity to someone so infuriatingly arrogant, but who, for some reason, fills me with the strongest desire that I've ever known? Alexander Well, well, well. It seems the ugly duckling has turned into the beautiful swan. Now that Rachel Evans is back, it's not just my head that's been turned, but Thomas's too. I can't have him lusting after an employee's daughter, though. It's not good for business and not good for him, either. So, to keep her out of the way, I've put her to work for one of my new companies. Since my wife's death, I haven't had room in my heart for another woman and I'm sure as hell not about to fall in love with Rachel, no matter how beautiful she is. That kiss ten years ago was a dumb mistake, and I only did it to shut her up. But the longer I work with her, the more I like it. She's sassy, feisty, and has a body to die for. My little boy, Noah, seems to love her and I get the feeling he wants the two of us to get together. But how can I allow myself to take a chance when I can't bring myself to love again?
