The calm to my storm. The light to my dark. The harder she fights to push me away, the more determined I become. Julianna Keller has no idea how far I'll go.

My new boss is a former fighter pilot-and it should be illegal to be that hot. But this city-boy condo builder doesn't know the first thing about construction in a place like Kasper Ridge. Will hired me to oversee the renovation at the old Kasper Ridge Resort-a job that will make my company and guarantee that Papa can live comfortably to a very old age.
