She expected to meet a wealthy, playboy bastard...

With a past like Lily Salomé's, there's not much that surprises--or scares her. So when her boss gives her a challenging proposal, she jumps at the opportunity to do the impossible: persuade one sexy and brooding business mogul to sign with their publishing company.

Easier said than done...

Jonas Crane doesn't return phones. Forget about securing a meeting. He's just not interested.

But when a pretty publishing assistant with a true love of intellect and literature approaches him, Jonas doesn't seem quite so resistant. As the two begin a blossoming companionship, obstacles arise, challenging everything they've worked for. Is the smart, mouthwatering billionaire just too out of Lily's league?
