One stubborn woman stands between Nathan and his plan to restore his company's reputation. Is Chloe willing to make a deal—for her land, and her heart?

Chloe Greenwood's seaside cottage means the world to her. It's more than a home, it's her sanctuary. However, thanks to a mystery bidder, the only way she can afford to expand her business is to sell her cherished refuge to a development company.

So what if the company's CEO is devastatingly handsome and has an uncanny knack for getting under her skin? The important thing is that selling her cottage will bring her the kind of financial security she craves.

Nathan Fitzgerald is willing to do whatever it takes to restore his company's reputation. At the top of his to-do list is to acquire the site earmarked for a luxury marina hotel—a site currently owned by the beautiful, stubborn Chloe Greenwood. He's sure that with a few pretty words and seductive look or two, the property will be his. Too bad he hadn't counted on falling head over belt buckle for Chloe.

Now that he knows just how much the cottage means to Chloe, how can he ask her to sell? How can he choose between his company, and his heart?
