A real estate developer hopes to seduce a defiant landowner in this classic romance from a USA Today–bestselling author. May Calendar has spent most of her life looking after her family. So, she’s not about to let anyone take her home or livelihood. Especially not arrogant property tycoon Jude Marshall! Jude is charming and sexy—and he’s determined to wine and dine May. Doesn’t she deserve a little fun? After all, this romantic interlude can’t last too long. Jude’s the kind of guy to want a mistress, not a wife, and May can’t let attraction take over—she’s got a family, a living and a secret to protect! Originally published in 2004
