A troubled playboy meets the woman he can't resist in this sizzling classic from New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter, previously published as The Hotter You Burn!
Beck Ockley is ruthless in the boardroom...and the bedroom. He's never been with the same woman twice and vows he never will. With a past as troubled as his, meaningless sex keeps the demons at bay and his own wary heart intact.
Harlow Glass is currently penniless, jobless and homeless. When the beautiful artist sneaks into Beck's home, her ancestral estate, she's shocked by his early return...and her immediate, sizzling and intense attraction to him.
For the first time in Beck's life, he can't get a woman out of his mind. All too soon, friendship blooms into something more and he'll either have to break her heart...or surrender his own.

      Showalter’s second Original Heartbreakers contemporary (after The Closer You Come) explores a new relationship between Beck Ockley, who has slept with nearly every available woman in Strawberry Valley, Okla., and Harlow Glass, once known as the cruelest bully around. The book opens with Harlow, now homeless and hungry, breaking into her former home and stealing a pie. When she’s caught by Beck and his two roommates, the house’s new inhabitants, Beck immediately becomes possessive and controlling, manipulating Harlow “for her own good” when he decides to step in as her savior. Fortunately, after the rocky start and clichéd characterization of Beck, the romance between Harlow and Beck becomes more complex, and readers who stick with the story will be rewarded with the journey of two truly troubled people learning to fight past their issues to build something genuine.
