About the book
Could he be both--gentle yet devious? The rumors surrounding the death of Luke Garrett's beautiful wife--that his adulterous behavior drove her to suicide--were enough to make Jill Carpenter cringe. How could this be the same man she saw lullaby his six-year-old son to sleep? The same man she had fallen hopelessly in love with? When Jill negotiated her wages as temporary nanny to her employer's young son, she hadn't bargained on the lasting impression Luke would leave on her heart.
