Proceed with caution. I'm what you'd call a good girl.Though boring girl might be more accurate, as far as Serena Daniels is concerned. Working as a pediatric nurse, she's not exactly knee-deep in eligible bachelors, and the most exciting thing she's done lately is mix her colors with her whites. The last time she asked a man out, he stood her up, then didn't bother to contact her for weeks. Clearly, she isn't the only one who thinks she's boring. Just how bad could this good girl get?Life is a string of crazy messes and brilliant moments for real estate mogul Lorenzo Salvatore, and he never knows which one he's going to get next.

Getting back into Serena's good graces will be tough, but with those bedroom eyes and killer legs becoming the center of his fantasies, he won't stop until he gets her right where he wants her—in bed. The bad and the goodGetting together with Lorenzo would definitely liven up Serena's life, but Lorenzo's made it clear that he and his son are a package deal.
