About the book
Kerry had fancied herself in love with Brad. But that had been four years ago--when Brad Halston had shattered her by telling her he wasn't the marrying kind. So Kerry Wallace wasn't particularly thrilled to find Brad was one of the bosses at the Las Meridas construction site. She was anxious to get practical experience to go along with her engineering degree. When she said to him, "Contrary to your own undoubted opinion, Brad, you're not irresistible," Kerry was confident she'd be able to keep him at arm's length this time.
