Secrets of Autumn — Joan Elliott Pickart

It was just too tempting to make architect Graham Kimble her final research subject for her dissertation, Autumn Stanton decided when she agreed to fill in as his secretary.

How could she know Graham had sworn off gorgeous bubbleheads and vowed to settle down with a plain, intelligent female whose looks were nothing special? When Autumn fell in love for real, she panicked, confessed her charade -- and drove Graham away, furious at her deception. Could he understand that, in baggy polyester or slinky silk, she was the spirited and caring woman he loved?
