Books like Taming Mariella by Dara Girard
Model-turned-photographer Mariella Duvall has just landed her dream job. And she isn't about to let anyone screw it up. Especially not Ian Cooper--the sexiest, handsomest but most ill-mannered man she's ever met. Unfortunately, Ian has been hired to troubleshoot her project, and he's way too fond of dishing out orders...Then Mariella and Ian are stranded on assignment in the middle of nowhere, and she is shocked to see Ian's protective side. Suddenly things are heating up between them in a far more pleasurable way--and she is finding it impossible to resist Ian's soul-stirring kisses. But once back in reality, will they be able to overcome their differences and let the sparks between them ignite into an everlasting love?
