Rourke — Carole Mortimer

Single, charming, sophisticated and wealthy, Rourke Steele has zero interest in falling in love or having a relationship.

He'd decided that long before the young and beautiful Sophie Hammond walked into his life three years ago.

He has the perfect life, working for the security company owned by all six of the Steele brothers, and dating and bedding as many beautiful women as he wants. Why ruin that by settling for one woman?

What does it matter if every time he sees Sophie Hammond he wants to drag her off to his bed and do wicked things to that delectable body? It just means he's a normal red-blooded man, right?

Wrong.

Because when Sophie is attacked at a wedding they are both attending Rourke doesn't hesitate to step in and defend her.

To hell with his usual charm and sophistication, Sophie is his, damn it.

His!

Falling instantly and irrevocably in love with one of her six bosses probably wasn't the wisest thing Sophie had ever done. It wasn't the worst thing she had ever done either. No, that prize went to trying to sort out her father's mess without alerting any of the Steele brothers, but most especially Rourke, to what was going on.

Something that is no longer an option when she's attacked while attending the wedding of Logan Steele, Rourke's twin brother, and Rourke is the one who comes to her rescue.

Grateful as she is for that intervention Sophie has no intention of allowing Rourke to just step in and try to take over her life.

Never mind that his kisses make her head spin and her knees weak. She's a big girl and can take care of her own mess, thank you very much.

Fireworks will ignite the sky and inanimate objects fly before these two stubborn people admit to their feelings for each other.
