Description

He never wanted anyone enough to chase them — until her.

Charming, laid-back, and outrageously wealthy, Xavier Castillo has no interest in inheriting his family’s empire, no matter how much it frustrates his father. Women fall at his feet, but his publicist remains immune to his charms — and riling her up quickly becomes his favorite pastime. When tragedy forces them closer than ever, Xavier is confronted with the uncertainty of his future and the realization that the one woman who won’t fall for him is the only one he truly wants.

Sloane Kensington is cool, intelligent, and relentlessly ambitious — a high-powered publicist used to handling difficult clients. No challenge her patience or her heart quite like Xavier, with his effortless charm and maddening dimples. She knows better than to fall for him… but resisting him becomes harder the closer they get.
