About the book
She had fallen for him at first sight... When Laura learned she was to work for the handsome Gideon Maitland, she was overwhelmed. Since she was a very junior secretary, he would never otherwise have noticed her. But he had more than seen her. He desired her "I just hope you don't get hurt," her mother had warned. Gideon, Laura discovered, was a complex man whose motives defied analysis. She had given him her heart and soul before she realized her attraction for him was revenge!
