Every whisper of love was a wounding lie...
Jed Foster claimed he loved her, needed her, wanted to marry her — but Megan wasn't buying any of it. After five years of working for the famous producer-director — five years of observing his blatant womanizing — she was onto his tricks.
Megan knew she was just a habit to Jed. Still, his sudden attentions were persuasive. As he wooed her slowly, sensuously, deliberately, part of her ached to believe him.
To love Jed could mean only heartache; reason warned Megan it was time to flee. But in spite of all reason she wanted him...with a primitive searing intensity that consumed her.
