So why does he feel compelled to help Maggie, the pretty, stranded mail-order bride? She is nothing but trouble, and sparks fly every time he looks at her. But how can he get over this sizzling need to do more than look...and maybe do a little touching...when she's constantly underfoot?No way is Miles ever going to trust another woman—but can he resist the heat he feels for her?
