Tempting the One

When two opposites are forced to live together for six weeks, a friends with benefits agreement seems the most logical way to make the situation bearable…

Country-girl Chessie Gibson's always been a giver. Billionaire Theo Courant's always been a player. Since childhood, the two have irritated the heck out of each other. Only when Theo breaks both wrists and ankles in a snowboarding accident, Chessie's asked to care for her family friend. Being stuck with egotistical Theo in her Meadowview farmhouse is most definitely not Chessie's idea of fun.

Theo sees Chessie as part pin-up girl, part hippie-chick—nothing like the models and social climbers he's used to dating. She's gorgeous and luscious, but he's never made a move on his best friend's younger sister. The two of them are opposite in almost every way imaginable. But wow—is she ever hot!

When Theo and Chessie end up stuck together for weeks, they come to know each other in ways neither thought possible. Seeing a different side of Theo—he's not exactly the frivolous playboy he seems—Chessie finds herself unable to resist the temptation to try a "friends with benefits" situation.

Even as the heat builds, their differences continue to come between them…and if Theo doesn't learn love is something that cannot be bought, the chance of a lifetime could pass them both by.
