About the book
Once a rake -- always a rake? If only Ashlie's brother hadn't accepted work so far away from London. Perhaps then his wife wouldn't have fallen for her rakish boss and Ashlie wouldn't have had to interfere... "You drive a hard bargain," Chase Marriner conceded the day Ashlie confronted him about the illicit weekends the lovers had planned. "In exchange for your spending the time away with me, I'll guarantee Lynette remains my employee and nothing more." Now Ashlie had only to arrange things so that Chase would honor his side of the bargain -- while she dishonored hers!
