The Charismatic Rake in Cowboy Boots...

With his irresistibly rugged looks, business superstar Jake Stratton was probably every woman's secret fantasy--but Professor Libby Kincaid insisted she didn't want to baby-sit him during his visiting lecturer series! She told herself she had no interest in this brash corporate game player, but why did his casual touch scorch her skin, his knowing smile make her sizzle with awareness and ache with a hunger she couldn't name? Jake needed to know why Libby hid her vulnerable beauty beneath shapeless dresses, why her deep blue eyes glowed with longing and unspoken fear. But he was startled when desire for her stalked him, made him yearn to share his triumphs and his failures with this spirited sorceress whose seductive powers drew him to her. Libby didn't want to want any man, but Jake had awakened a reckless wanton when he kissed her. Could he teach her to be proud shed survived her sorrows, and to trust the man who knew every secret in her soul?
