      When a business deal

      Becomes an affair of the heart.

      Big-city Noah Wainwright’s always viewed business as a game. But when he stumbles across bed-and-breakfast owner Viviana Remington, she’s playing by different rules. Rules of honor that bring the love-’em-and-leave-’em playboy to his knees. And reserved Viviana’s hardly immune to the real-estate guru’s many charms. When Viv learns how the Wainright family plays the game, though, all bets are off...

      Noah rested a hand at the small of her back. “Why don’t you go sit down. Tell me what you want.”

      “Oh, you’re going to serve me?”

      He smiled. “Of course. We Wainwright men may not be able to cook well, but we do know how to serve a woman.”

      Viviana wanted to remind Noah that she wasn’t his woman or even a Wainwright woman but decided to play along. It was better than trading barbs with him. She executed a graceful curtsy. “I’m sorry I barked at you yesterday, and I want to—”

      Noah placed a finger over her parted lips, cutting off her apology. His mouth was a hairbreadth from hers. “No apologies. It’s in the past, and I don’t believe in reliving the past,” he said, winking at her. His eyebrows lifted questioningly. “Agree?”

      Viviana was too stunned to speak and nodded instead. Noah hadn’t kissed her, but that did not stop her heart from beating faster than normal. Did he not know he was much too virile for her to ignore? All he had to do was stare at her, and she felt things she did not want to feel. The scars from her last relationship were still healing, and she did not want to reopen them.

      WICKHAM FALLS WEDDINGS:

       Small-town heroes, bighearted love!

      Dear Reader,

      The Wainwrights are back!

      This time it’s Noah Wainwright who will take center stage in the latest Wickham Falls Wedding story. I’d asked myself from the first time I introduced Noah to readers in Because of You if there was a woman out there who could make him turn in his bachelor card.

      Noah decided to answer that question for me when he first met Viviana Remington in Twins for the Soldier. Noah is not only smitten with the dark-haired beauty but is totally unaware that the owner of Wickham Falls Bed and Breakfast has just earned her third strike in the game of romance and is also totally immune to his practiced charm. What’s a man to do? Noah chooses to let events unfold naturally but never could he have predicted a deal he has executed countless times would not go as planned.

      Viviana Remington breaks her vow never to get involved with another man, but she needs hunky blond Noah to save her bed and breakfast. They combine business with pleasure as he takes her on a whirlwind journey of glamorous parties in exotic locales, and when he introduces the small-town girl to his wealthy New York City real-estate family, she knows she’s in too deep. But in a single act, Noah will go from dealmaker to heartbreaker and he is forced to choose between the woman
