Laura Scott has always been drawn to David Lattimer, yet she harbors doubts about his employer, D. Jonathan Lattimer. One morning, she discovers she is married—to David Jonathan Lattimer. The promise of a life with a man she pledged to hate forces Laura to confront her emotions as her husband, once a distant and uneasy presence, begins to show a deeper, perhaps more compassionate side. Amid feelings of betrayal and the fear of being drawn into a world she never sought, Laura must decide whether she can love the man she once considered a stranger.
