About the book
Passion or hatred--which was stronger? From the moment she first met heartless, handsome Kyle Beringer, Arminel was overwhelmed by conflicting emotions. Kyle was convinced Arminel's engagement to his brother Rhys was not a union of two lovers. In fact, he assumed she was a gold-digging little tramp, interested only in the Beringer fortune. He did everything he could to make it clear her presence on the family's New Zealand sheep station was an unwelcome intrusion. But his eyes gave him away. They flamed with violent desire that Arminel was powerless to resist.
