He ravaged my mouth until I was gasping for breath, then covered my jawline, my neck with kisses. “Say yes,” he whispered, nibbling at my ear. Why not? I had been telling him yes in my mind for five years; saying it out loud was just one more word... Jenna Hill's gorgeous stepbrother Blake Forsythe has promised her the money she needs to save her bookstore... if she's willing to jeopardize her relationship with her father and her reputation on a scandalous gamble Blake thinks he can win. He's isolated her from everyone in the quiet resort town of Sleepy Hollow days before the big family reunion in Manhattan when his plan will go into motion. For her part, Jenna vows to resist Blake's charms. It's just a contract to him, she reminds herself. He couldn't possibly want her the way she wants him -- with a fierce, burning desire that causes her to abandon logical thought whenever he's around. There's no way he could feel the way she feels... is there?

On a trip to the Big Apple, minutes before she's to meet her father's fiancée Lana Forsythe, Jenna Hill meets the man of her dreams. He's smart and funny and smoking hot, and he runs his own successful tech company. He's absolutely perfect. There's just one, teensy tiny little problem. His name is Blake Forsythe. As in Lana Forsythe's son. Devastated at the news and rejected by Blake once he learns they're to be step siblings, Jenna tries to move on with her life over the next few years. That's easier said than done, however, when she has to come crawling to back to the wealthy Forsythe family for a loan to keep her book store afloat. Blake, for once, offers to help her... if she does him a favor. A really, really big one. The price of this contract may be more than she's willing to pay. Jenna bets she can keep her head and not lose her cool around her hot stepbrother in order for her business to survive, but it's her heart that's in danger of succumbing...
