Product Description
by Janet Dailey (Author)
A beautiful virgin aches for a Big Easy bad boy in this novel from the New York Times-bestselling author of Rivals.
In the sultry heat of the Louisiana bayou, Jolie Antoinette Smith discovers more than her great-grandmother's plantation--she finds love. The plantation's electrifying owner, Steve Cameron, with his dark blue eyes, black hair, and overwhelming masculinity, makes her wish she never committed herself to chastity before marriage. His loving efforts to restore the crumbling mansion only fuel her desire further, but when Steve says he'll never get married, she knows she's lost her heart to the wrong man. Jolie is a different kind of woman, and that troubles Steve. Her soft brown eyes and ready smile move him in ways that are dangerous for a man who has no intention of settling down. As much as he wants her, he'll fight to keep her safe from his own desire--but that only makes the spark between them all the more intense.Author Biography
