About the book
It seemed like a heaven-sent escape. Researching articles on Portugal's tourist attractions would bring welcome relief from recent events she'd endured. Then Kate discovered that Peter had also nominated her as his substitute in the Great Port car race. According to the rules, she'd have to be chaperoned by Peter's codriver - her arch enemy, Adriao Carvalho Ferreira. It was bad enough that he was aristocratic, arrogant and unforgiving. But the fact he believed the spiteful tabloid articles written about her had Kate hissing at him like a snake. It was certainly going to be one bumpy ride!
