About the book
He wanted the impossible... Jessica Harley had become a celebrated author after the breakup of her marriage to Philip Masters. And she wasn't about to give him another chance to ruin her life--especially not now that his precious racing career was over. It was bad enough that Philip wanted to dredge up old hurts and find new reasons for their alienation. But the idea that they could ever reconcile their differences enough to remarry was preposterous. Philip hadn't trusted Jessica with his innermost thoughts when she'd needed him How ironic that he would turn to her now--when she no longer wanted to care.
