About the book
Since her childhood, Annabel had always been the greatest of friends with Kit Armitage—friends, no more. As long as she could remember it had been his older brother Ran that she had been in love with. But Ran had never looked her way—and by the time she was grown up she had managed to conceal her feelings for him so successfully that no one was ever going to believe she cared two hoots about him—including Ran himself. And why should he care about Annabel, when he himself was in love with the beautiful Venetia—his best friend's wife?
