There was a time when Marlowe Wyatt had abandoned herself to
the unrestrained pleasures of love; she'd been bold and
unashamed, giving her heart and body to her lover without
inhibition or hesitation. Until she was betrayed. It's
ironic, then, that she now earns a living composing love
letters for clients incapable of communicating
desire--erotic fantasies she skillfully creates with her
head, but never her heart... deliberately disconnected from
her passionate core.
Her newest client is about to challenge all that. From the
moment of their first encounter, Gideon Brown ignites in her
an overpowering hunger like none she's ever known, and a
vulnerability she thought she'd vanquished. As the powerful
attraction that sizzles between them inspires Marlow's best
work, sensations and desires she'd long held in check sweep
her toward the brink of surrender. Yet her own fear, plus
thoughts of the woman for whom Gideon hired Marlowe to write
the letters, holds her back. But for how long?
