To Aiden Terrell, Alexandra Radford is a captivating combination of British propriety and eastern exoticism. But, this confirmed bachelor has sworn off love and instead has decided to assist at his friend's private investigation business. Now his job is to protect the exquisite Alexandra and her young pupil from a shadowy threat. But, guarding himself against Miss Radford's charms will be another matter altogether...
Insufferable. Insolent. Intriguing. Mr. Terrell is all of these things and more-though Alex can't afford to care. If he weren't her last resort, she'd surely have dismissed him after that first smoldering glance-a glance that sent her heart racing with a desire she'd never known. However, when the threat of danger increases, and secrets from the past come to the fore, Alex's fierce resolve melts as she seeks warm comfort and delicious passion in Aiden's arms. And, with each moment they share, Aiden is becoming less someone she needs than someone she wants. But, what will happen when all secrets are revealed?
