Jago Tanner is a loner. He works up a good hunger at his outdoors pursuits centre in Wales and looks upon each female conquest as just another meal. When heβs sated, he doesnβt go back for dessert. Until Riley shows up. A Londoner hired through an agency to assist him with activities, she isnβt at all what he asked for. For starters, with the name Riley, he expected a man. But Riley is all womanβthe sexiest woman Jago has ever laid eyes on. Unfortunately she dresses like a trollop and curses like a sailor. Though ignorant about most outdoors pursuits, sheβs a skilled horsewoman, able to calm even his nerviest stallion. And her lively and generous nature enchants his housekeeper Emily and his ancient friend, Tom. In short, Jagoβs new employee is a bundle of contradictions.
Which is why, when Jago falls for her, he doesnβt trust his feelings. Riley seems unusually accident prone, and when her brotherβs shady friends menace her, she plays the innocent. But how can anyone so self-sufficient and mouthy also be so trusting and naΓ―ve? And can a man with Jagoβs volatile nature endure the jealousy a woman like Riley provokes just by strolling down the street?
