When CEO Gabe Fulton invites his assistant to his beach house, Kara Kincaid can't wait to spend two sun–soaked weeks with her boss. They're in Charleston to seal a lucrative deal in private, but Kara's determined to show Gabe a side of herself he's never noticed at the office: the Kara who favors bikinis over blouses, who's just as happy building sandcastles with his four–year–old as she is building a business empire. And this Kara is definitely not interested in keeping things professional.

But Gabe recently divorced a woman who loved his money more than she ever loved him–or their daughter. Kara can tell those wounds are still fresh. And with a troubled past of her own, she'll have to work overtime to prove she's in it for the man, not his billions.
