About the book
'You're too beautiful to touch, too cold to marry and you spend your life looking after a career instead of love, marriage and children.' Alicia was devastated at this pronouncement. After all, she had found that loving let to heartbreak, whereas a career was safe. David was also safe - and Alicia liked that. But Jean-Marc Brissac's vocabulary didn't include the word. He made her feel out of control, and she didn't like that one little bit.
