Daughter of the Stars — Quinn Wilder

It was too late now. She was stuck with him!

If only, Shannie rued, she hadn't told that little lie about running an inn. Because now she had a summer-long houseguest--recuperating athlete and old family friend, Brand Heaton.

She'd only told that story to allay her family's concerns about her living alone in the British Columbia countryside. Furthermore, athletes were overpaid narcissists, not Shannie's idea of ideal companions.

And the fact that Brand was so damnably attractive made matters worse. It would be a long hot summer, staying cool around this man!
